Anna Rosenberg, an ardent New Dealer and friend of President Roosevelt, was appointed to the position of assistant secretary of defense for personnel and manpower in 1950. She was nominated at the height of the Korean War and the opening of the era of McCarthyism. Unlike others, who were unable to withstand the accusations of disloyalty during the confirmation process, she survived and had a distinguished career in the Defense Department. This article is about her battle for confirmation before the Senate Armed Services Committee
