Has an announcement be made to who they are? The COC is 8 Aug.

The interviews for NER CC was this past weekend. They are not planning on naming the NJ CC until later this week. I have a feeling that the NER position may dictate who the NJ CC might be. Just my opinion, no facts to support one way or the other.

The NER and NJ Wg changes of command have been reschedule to Sunday, 9 August at 1300.

Wow......can we say Good Old Boys Club.

NER just pulled a Russia. The Leader steps down, to be replaced by his hand picked successor, and stays on in a leadership role. Conspiracy??

I guess we have no other Officers competent enough to step up....huh.

To be clear, Col Diduch and Col McCabe are not staying on as Vice-Commanders and the NJW website does not state that they are.

The story about the Wing Commander selection is at http://njwgcap.org/. The New Jersey Wing, Maine Wing and Northeast Region Change of Command ceremonies occurred at McGuire AFB this afternoon. There was no announcement as to Vice-Commanders at the ceremony or, as noted above, listed on the Wing News website.

Thanks for the laugh, gentlemen.
"vice" means, in this instance, replacement for....
NER website has not been changed yet.
Col Diduch is no longer the NER/CC nor is he the CV
Col Mull is no longer the NER/CV however, he is the NJWG/CC
and was the interim PAWG/CV until last month.

The NJWG website has also not been changed. Let's give the webmasters a day or two to get things in gear. It's only been a week since the selection boards were held and, only a couple of days since the decision was made.

Why did he step down?

FW · August 10, 2009, 04:19:16 PM

terms of office were completed.

Airrace · August 10, 2009, 04:48:02 PM

Thanks for the information!

Interestingly, Col Mull is attending my CLC next month as a student.

Oh, and Col Hayden's bio is on the NER web site now: http://ner.cap.gov/staff/staff_bios.php#105

^ That's always fun.

The staff at GLRSC this year mentioned that there was a sitting Wing Commander that attended last year or the year before.

Colonel Hayden was one of the founders of the Dr. Who show on BBC.
