Michael Hagee is a solid, no-surprise choice as the Marine Corps' new leader, colleagues and analysts said yesterday.
Hagee, a trim, 57-year-old Texan who speaks with a slight native twang, is described as someone with an engineer's brains and an even-keeled nature that has helped him negotiate the Pentagon and the Central Intelligence Agency during his 34-year career.
Hagee has a "brilliant mind" and isn't known to raise his voice or display anger, said Terry Murray, a retired Marine major general and Hagee's classmate at the U.S. Naval Academy.
