More than 430 senior military officials had their promotions and confirmations delayed last year due to Capitol Hill political fight.
Lt. Gen. Roger Turner, whose promotion had been among hundreds blocked by one senator, took over III Marine Expeditionary Force on Friday.

The senior officials were the last remaining individuals involved in the protest by a Republican senator over the Pentagon's abortion access policy.
