Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to undergo procedure at Walter Reed
SUMMARY: Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will temporarily transfer power to Deputy Secretary Kathleen Hicks as he undergoes an elective procedure for bladder issues at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. The procedure is minimally invasive and unrelated to his previous prostate cancer diagnosis, which has not affected his excellent prognosis. Austin, 70, has experienced ongoing health issues following prostate surgery, including a hospital stay for complications and a non-surgical bladder procedure earlier this year. Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder confirmed that the White House and Congress have been notified of the temporary power transfer.
