FLASHBACK: REINCE PRIEBUS SELECTED TO JOIN NAVY AS RESERVE OFFICERIn addition to Mattis’ recommendation, a board of officers also chose Priebus as a reserve officer, the Post reported, citing defense officials and a memo. “Reince’s experience, education, and personality make him an ideal fit to be commissioned into the Navy Reserve,” Mattis wrote in a summer letter obtained by The Post. Priebus served as Trump's chief of staff for roughly six months, starting at the beginning of the Trump administration in January 2017.
