McNabb will take charge of AMC, headquartered at Scott, AFB, Ill., later this month. AMC’s vice commander, Lt. Gen. Christopher Kelly, has served as acting commander since Gen. John Handy relinquished command of both AMC and US Transportation Command on Sept. 8. McNabb has been serving as the Joint Staff’s Director for Logistics, heading up operational logistics and strategic mobility support for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the Secretary of Defense.
