USACE District Commanders.

摘要

Given the current force structure and operational assignments, many officers first assignment in USACE occurs at the commander or deputy commander level. Currently, USACE has 45 districts, each with commander and deputy commander positions. Nine districts are commanded by a lieutenant colonel and 36 are commanded by a colonel. In addition, there are nine USACE divisions commanded by a general officer, each with a colonel deputy commanding general position. This force structure yields a demand of 99 officers, mostly at the lieutenant colonel and colonel grades. Many officers successfully complete battalion command and then are selected for a colonel-level command slot in a USACE district, or successfully complete an assignment as an operations and training or executive officer and then are sent to a USACE district as a senior major or junior lieutenant colonel.
