Retired Marine two-star general found dead on Twentynine Palms training center

A retired Marine General who once oversaw all training across the Marine Corps and who recently was in Ukraine to review that nation’s military training was found dead on Twentynine Palms training center, the service’s largest training base.

Maj. Gen. William F. Mullen, 59, who retired from the Marines in 2020, was found dead on the base on Saturday, according to an online database maintained by the San Bernardino County coroner’s office. The database said Mullen was found at the base’s Building 1651, a non-descript single-story classroom building used by the base’s Communication-Electronics school. Mullen was once the commander of Twentynine Palms before taking over as the Commanding General of the Marine’s Training and Education Command, which oversees the curriculums and training centers across the Marine Corps.

The Marines confirmed Mullen was “found deceased” on June 29.
