Defense Fuel Supply Center Commander Army Brig. Gen. James Bickford greets Army General Colin Powell at Cameron Station, Alexandria, Virginia, in 1991. The purpose of Powell’s visit was to award the agency’s first Joint Meritorious Unit Award for its support during Desert Shield/Desert Storm. In 1964, Defense Logistics Agency Energy was named the Defense Fuel Supply Center and designated as a single entity to purchase and manage DOD’s petroleum products and coal.
