The first woman to lead a branch of the armed forces was relieved of command within 24 hours of President Trump’s inauguration.

The deployment was ordered after the Trump administration signaled its intent to rename the Gulf of Mexico and moved quickly to fire the Coast Guard commandant.

Linda Fagan, the first female admiral of the U.S. Coast Guard, was dismissed by the Trump administration on Monday without explanation.

The Coast Guard has announced it will be sending “aircraft, boats and deployable specialized forces” to the “Gulf of America” in an effort to curb illegal immigration and the flow of drugs. The move comes following President Donald Trump’s executive order that changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.

President Biden in 2022 announced Admiral Linda Fagan as the new commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard making her the first woman to lead a branch of the U.S. military. President Trump's administration has now fired Fagan.
