Ted Delicath

Ted Delicath, Chief of Staff, McChrystal Group

Born into a Midwestern predilection for self-deprecation, Ted likes to say he "played Army," but he realized that does a disservice to those whom he served beside. Over four years, he commanded two platoons, participated in the Army's Best Ranger Competition, and deployed to Cameroon as the Army's Liaison to the US Embassy. After rehabbing as a civilian, he recently relapsed, joining the Army Reserves as a Space Force Officer. Unfortunately, he was reprimanded on his first day for (tongue-in-cheek) showing up as Buzz Lightyear. The first in his immediate family to attend a four-year institution, Ted played college football at Illinois Wesleyan University where he received his BA in Political Science. He received his MA from Dublin City University as a Mitchell Scholar studying Security & Conflict. In January of 2023, he will pursue his MBA from Kellogg.
