Officials at Robins AFB, Ga., say they are ahead of the game when it comes to cleaning up environmental pollution at the Warner Robins Air Logistics Center. The Air Force has given its ALCs until 2014 to restore sites contaminated by past industrial operations. Robins already has finished half of its 79 contaminated sites and plans to complete the rest a full nine years early. The multi-million dollar effort will “free up valuable natural resources for the base,” said the man in charge of the restoration program, Fred Otto.
Lt. Gen. Stephen L. Davis, the Department of the Air Force’s top internal watchdog, has been nominated to lead Air Force Global Strike Command, which oversees the service’s bombers and intercontinental ballistic missiles.
