The Air Force has assigned Lt. Gen. Clyde Moore to command the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, announced the Defense Department on Wednesday. Air Force Materiel Command created the center last fall as part of the command-wide reorganization that saw it consolidate functions from 12 centers to five. AFLCMC oversees the command’s acquisition mission. Moore has been serving since October as AFMC vice commander.
U.S. aircraft, drones, and attack helicopters have launched significant airstrikes in recent days against Islamic State militants in Syria as part of the renewed air campaign against remnants of the group, U.S. officials said.
