Gen. Stanley McChrystal, former commander of U.S. and international forces in Afghanistan, has been added as a featured speaker to the 2015 CUNA Governmental Affairs Conference in March.

"Gen. McChrystal has an outstanding record of innovation, teamwork and forward-thinking, which will coalesce into a cogent message for credit unions," CUNA President/CEO Jim Nussle, said. "We are delighted that CUNA Councils is sponsoring a new Sunday general session to bring his insights to credit unions; it's an honor to welcome Gen. McChrystal to this year's GAC."

McChrystal, former leader of the Joint Special Operations Command, wrote The New York Times best-selling leadership book My Share of the Task: A Memoir, which was released in January 2013.

McChrystal resigned as commander in Afghanistan after a Rolling Stone article was published that included statements critical of officials with President Obama's administration. Some of the comments were attributed to McChrystal and his aids.

The GAC will take place March 8-12 in Washington, D.C.
