President-elect Donald Trump appointed veteran Sam Brown, who lost his bid for the Nevada U.S. Senate seat in November, as the next undersecretary for Memorial Affairs at the Department of Veterans Affairs, Trump announced on his social media Thursday afternoon.

Trump called Brown an American hero and successful businessman who “fearlessly proved his love for our Country in the Army, while leading Troops in battle in Afghanistan” and said on his social media platform that Brown will “now continue his service to our Great Nation at the VA, where he will work tirelessly to ensure we put America’s Veterans FIRST, and remember ALL who served.”

Brown, a Reno resident who recently ran against Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen, thanked Trump on X.

 

“I am grateful and accept this opportunity to put Duty First and continue my service to America,” he said.
