On 21 May 1908, he was appointed Major General Commandant of the Marine Corps. One of the most difficult endeavors of MajGen Elliott's career was his successful resistance to attempts to remove sea-going Marines from capital ships and to merge the Corps into the Army. Also during his tenure the home post of the Corps, Marine Barracks, 8th and I Streets, Washington, underwent major changes. In 1903, the old barracks were condemned and pulled down and by 1910 had been rebuilt essentially in their present form. He was placed on the retired list on 30 November 1910 upon reaching the statutory retirement age.
