Air Force Materiel Command has issued reduction-in-force notices to 96 civilians that work at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. The base already had approved 187 early retirements or separations. Both actions are part of the command’s share of the Air Force-wide reduction of about 2,000 civilians in Fiscal 2007. The RIF notices at Wright-Patt include 33 separations, 21 reductions in grade, and 42 reassignments. All the actions take effect Oct. 1.
Lt. Gen. Jason T. Hinds took charge of NATO Allied Air Command and U.S. Air Forces in Europe-Air Forces Africa on Oct. 31, one day after being confirmed for the post by the Senate.
