The Air Force has renamed the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence, headquartered at Brooks City-Base, Tex., to the Air Force Center for Engineering and the Environment—the acronym, therefore, is still AFCEE. A base release says the new name “more accurately reflects the organization’s increased scope of responsibilities.” AFCEE now oversees the service’s military construction, military family housing, and environmental restoration, part of a centralization move by the Air Force.
Air Force Gen. Alexus G. Grynkewich assumed command of U.S. European Command on July 1, taking over the key assignment as the U.S. and its allies contend with a resurgent Russia and a grinding war in Ukraine.
