Air Mobility Command boss Gen. Duncan McNabb stopped by McChord AFB, Wash., to check on the progress being made to ready the base to receive more than 100 national and international mobility teams that will participate in Rodeo in July. McNabb said the event “is the kind of competition that allows us to take mobility forces to a whole different level,” providing a chance to share tactics and techniques. “Rodeo raises the bar for everybody and … it takes the whole force forward,” said McNabb.
Air Force Gen. Jacqueline D. Van Ovost—a trailblazer and one of the first 10 women to reach a four-star rank across the U.S. military—retired and passed control of U.S. Transportation Command to Air Force Gen. Randall Reed on Oct. 4, finishing an eventful tenure at TRANSCOM.
