The head of the Warner Robins Air Logistics Center, Maj. Gen. Tom Owen, said that the Georgia ALC will become one of five Air Force regional contracting centers. During a ceremony at Macon State College on Oct. 5, marking the start of a collaboration to provide business students with government contracting courses, Owens said the WRALC would be gaining 385 contracting professionals. Gene Rector of The Telegraph reports that the Warner Robins activity would consolidate “base-level” contracting actions for 11 Air Force bases in the southeast. Other regional centers are slated for Colorado, Virginia, Missouri, and Texas.
Officials at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., said the range is “fully mission capable” to support launches following a major May 28 mishap involving Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket.
