DLA Aviation deactivates ahead of Weapons Support activation
Defense Supply Center Richmond Fire and Police Honor Guard presents the colors during the July 23 DLA Aviation Deactivation ceremony which also served as a relinquishment of command for Aviation’s final commander, Air Force Brig. Gen. Patrick Launey, in the Frank B. Lotts Conference Center on Defense Supply Center Richmond, Virginia. The deactivation of Aviation as a major subordinate command supports the establishment of DLA Weapons Support, which will integrate Aviation and DLA Land and Maritime, reinforcing the agencies’ transformative efforts to optimize global logistics for the joint force.
