Private equity firm Behrman Capital
has announced that General Peter Pace, retired USMC and former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, took the role as Operating Partner with the firm. General Pace was also named as Chairman of the Board to Pelican Products, an advanced lighting systems and valuable equipment case manufacturer. He will also direct ILC Industries, Inc., a company that provides defense electronics (of course the defense angle).
Grant Behrman of the firm noted that General Pace has forty years tenure in the Marines and then as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Pace graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy and has an MBA from George Washington University.
Behrman Capital is a private equity investment firm with more than $2 billion of capital under management and it invests in management buyouts, leveraged "buildups" and recapitalizations of established growth companies. If you look through the private equity firm's
portfolio companies, you can see why having a former general and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman would be a good thing.
