The Bush Administration has nominated Maj. Gen. Loren Reno for a third star and to become the new deputy chief of staff for logistics, installations, and mission support on the Air Staff. He would replace Lt. Gen. Kevin Sullivan, who retired Nov. 1 after receiving a letter of reprimand, the harshest punishment given to six generals cited for a lack of leadership in their nuclear oversight roles. Michael Aimone, the assistant DCS, is currently also the acting DCS. To replace Reno as the commander of Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center at Tinker AFB, Okla., the Air Force has selected Maj. Gen. Patrick Gillett Jr., currently serving as director of logistics at Air Combat Command.
U.S. Space Command has established an internal planning team, dubbed Tasked Force Voyager, to spearhead logistics for the combatant command's relocation from Colorado to Alabama.
