- Roger Wheeler had a long and distinguished military career. As Chief of the General Staff, the professional head of the British Army, he brings to Aegis experience of the highest levels of political/military engagement both nationally and internationally. He is a member of the Advisory Board of Thales UK and the Serious Organised Crime Agency. He is Constable of HM Tower of London. He is a non–executive director having previously served on the Aegis Advisory Council.[1]
Wheeler was named as the military advisor to the Iraq Inquiry chaired by Sir John Chilcott in October 2009.[2] His appointment was questioned because of his role as a director of Aegis, which had profited from the Iraq War.[3]
