Team,

It’s hard to believe March is already here. Time certainly does fly when you are busy delivering world-class C5ISR readiness to our Soldiers around the globe!

Last week, I had the wonderful opportunity to travel to our teams (SEC, CSLA and TYAD) located in Ft. Huachuca and Ft. Sill. Between the two installations we met with leaders and the workforce, received in-depth systems overviews, toured labs and facilities, and really saw some of our software systems working in action. We were also able to recognize some of our teammates for their hard work and achievements. This trip was a great chance to not only keep in-tune with the entire command footprint, but more specifically answer how CECOM and our teammates around the globe can deliver and sustain Army readiness through software operationalization.

Last Friday, we were able to formally promote our very own G3/5, COL Joel Feltz. What an incredibly well-deserved advancement; our Army is lucky to have Soldiers like COL Feltz in its ranks. Please, join me in offering him and his family a hearty congratulations!

This week our Tobyhanna Army Depot Sergeant Major, SGM Michael J. Wiles, relinquished his responsibility as the depot's senior enlisted advisor. We are extremely grateful for the time and support SGM Wiles offered TYAD and our Army, and we wish him well in his new role as Battalion CSM for the 1-337th Brigade Support Battalion in the coming months.

Please be aware of next week’s CECOM Town Hall scheduled for 7 MARCH at 1300 in APG’s Myer Auditorium. The Town Hall will be streamed live on MS Teams, but I hope those who can, will attend in-person. We will cover several important topics including: recent travel updates, new leadership updates, Commander’s Ready and Resilient Council opportunities, as well as quarterly awards and command-wide recognitions. As always, your participation makes these town hall events more valuable and useful for improving our command, so come prepared to actively participate.

Thank you all for your continued support, dedication and commitment to our Army. You are all essential in ensuring our Warfighters have the resources they need, when they need it.

Combat Power! Always Ready!

Sincerely,

MG Rob Edmonson II
