Kellogg served in the Vietnam War and has worked in the private sector since retiring from the Army in 2003, said a statement by Trump's transition team.

The statement said Crowley is a foreign affairs and political analyst for the Fox News Channel, but a Fox News spokesperson said Crowley's contract had been terminated.

The two will serve under Michael Flynn, a retired general Trump earlier named as his national security adviser.
