New Commander for Group 3

On Saturday, 8 Jan 2011, at the Wing Meeting/Commanders Call, Colonel Art Scarborough, LAWING Commander transferred command of Group 3 to Major Christine Richmond. Major Richmond, an Engineer by trade and a Certified Flight Instructor, has risen through the ranks out of the Ascension Composite Squadron. The Major has held just about every position there is in squadron, often many at one time. Most recently, she leaves the positions of Administrative officer vacant. At the time of her appointment, she was also serving as Wing Professional Development Officer.
We are very proud of Major Richomond and look forward to continued success of the Group under her command.
