Outgoing Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. T. Michael Moseley will leave office as soon as June 27, an Air Force spokeswoman said.

Vice Chief of Staff Gen. Duncan McNabb will take over as acting chief of staff until Moseley’s replacement, Gen. Norton Schwartz, is confirmed by the Senate.

A confirmation hearing at which the Air Force’s proposed new leadership team will testify before the Senate Armed Services Committee has been scheduled for June 24, the spokeswoman said.

Appearing before the committee will be Schwartz; Michael Donley, who has been nominated to replace Air Force Secretary Michael W. Wynne; and Lt. Gen. William Fraser III, who has been nominated to replace McNabb as vice chief.

The full Senate will then have to vote on the nominations. Each nominee must receive a majority of senators’ votes in order to be confirmed and take office.
