Pacific Region CC?

[RNOfficer]

Anyone know who the new Pacific Region Commander will be? Is the change of command the new year?

[PHall]

Change of command is not scheduled until Region Conference in September.

[AdAstra]

A selection committee has been appointed, but I haven't see any announcement yet calling for applications.

The change of command is scheduled for May 2013 at the Pacific Region Conference in Santa Maria, CA.

I wonder.............. Can the National Historian become the PCR/CC?

Don't see why not.

Hey, let's give him a chance to be a great historian first.

If they follow true to form the new CC will be:
1. Former Wing Commander
2. Pilot
3. Ops heavy background

Others need not apply.

[PHall]

Should be interesting to see who applies for the job.

I can not think of anyone who was ever a Region CC without being a Wing CC.

BUT, in the past PCR/CC has not always been a hot shot pilot, ES/OPS guy. Now others Regions may vary.

Nothing wrong with being a strong AE, Cadet Program officer or just a "great" overall leader.

JMHO ...

It's a requirement to be a Wing Commander before you can apply to be a Region Commander.

See CAPR 35-9, 22 Oct 2012, Paragraph 10 for all of the requirements you have to satisify to apply to be a region commander.

I am told, on good authority, that only two people have so far expressed any interest in the job: Ken Parris, former CAWG CC, and Brian Bishop from Oregon.  I also hear that Bishop has the unofficial blessing of the current Region CC.

[SarDragon]

Well, Ken just got appointed National IG, so moving to PCR/CC doesn't sound like a wise move right now.
