David Hale, Ambassador of the United States to Pakistan visited General Headquarters (GHQ) on Thursday and called on Chief of the Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa.
During their meeting, the US ambassador and the COAS discussed bilateral and regional security issues.
On Wednesday, General Bajwa was in Karachi on his first visit to the port city after assuming command of the Pakistan army.
Upon his arrival, General Bajwa commenced day’s proceedings by visiting Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s mausoleum where he laid a floral wreath.
After reaching the Corps Headquarters later on Thursday, where he was given a detailed briefing on the ongoing Karachi Operation and overall security situation in the city issues at the corps headquarters.
General Bajwa took charge as the 16th army chief of the world’s sixth-largest army by troop numbers in a formal colourful handover on November 29.
He replaced General Sharif after his three-year term ended, a rare example of a smooth transition in a nation where army chiefs have a history of clinging to power.

Nation will always remember sacrifices of APS victims: Gen Bajwa
23 MINS AGO BY WEB DESK
Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa has said that the blood of the Army Public School (APS) martyrs was an obligation on the nation and the armed forces.
While speaking at the memorial held for the martyrs at APS, Peshawar on Friday, General Bajwa said that the nation will always remember the sacrifices of the APS children and all institutions stand with the bereaved families in their tragedy.
Gen Bajwa said the armed forces are striving to bring the war against terrorism to a conclusion and will not rest until terrorism is completely uprooted.
Earlier, the current principal of the military-run school said, “The time of the attack was extremely difficult for the whole country. It felt as though we would never be able to come out of this pain. But we came out of that time better and stood strong in front of the enemy.”
Paying tribute to the 144 victims, mostly school children, she said, “We have not forgotten our children, our brave Principal, Tahira Kazi and the young soldiers whose martyrdom strengthened the country.”
Army chief Gen Qamar Jawed Bajwa laid a wreath and offered prayers at the memorial.
The gruesome massacre had served as a binding force for Pakistanis in the fight against terrorism. The political and military leadership had given a clarion call against terrorists, launching a comprehensive national strategy to defeat the menace.
Though the attack’s mastermind and his facilitators have been eliminated, the grieving parents continue to call for a judicial inquiry to unmask those responsible for the deadly assault and high number of casualties.

LTG's have retired, and MGs usually don't opt for premature retirement and continue to serve.
