摘要

The commander of the 71st Flying Training Wing at Vance Air Force Base in Oklahoma has been relieved of command. Col. Timothy Danielson was removed by Maj. Gen. Craig Wills, 19th Air Force commander, Feb. 26 for a loss of trust and confidence in his ability to effectively command the wing. Col. Jay Johnson, 71st FTW's vice commander, has temporarily assumed command. "Commanders must uphold the highest standards and create and maintain a proper environment in their unit," Lt. Gen. Brad Webb, commander of Air Education and Training Command, said in a news release. Danielson assumed command of the 71st FTW on June 29, 2020. Prior to that he had served as the 43rd Air Mobility Operations Group commander at Pope Army Airfield, N.C.
