HUGE NEWS: CAAF nominations

From whitehouse.gov:

Margaret A. Ryan, of Virginia, to be a Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces for the term of fifteen years to expire on the date prescribed by law, vice Herman F. Gierke, term expired.

Scott Wallace Stucky, of Maryland, to be a Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces for the term of fifteen years to expire on the date prescribed by law, vice Susan J. Crawford, term expired.

(This means that if they are confirmed on the same day, Judge Stucky will be the senior of the two.)
