HILL AIR FORCE BASE, Utah — I am extremely proud of the professional Airmen of the Ogden Air Logistics Complex. In 2016, this world-class team’s contributions provided readiness to the warfighter and helped defend our nation’s freedom. Last fiscal year, by working together with our enterprise teammates we exceeded mission requirements by completing 451 of 450 scheduled and 34 unscheduled aircraft major repairs, overhauls and modifications, produced 91,000 commodities, missiles and software products, and sustained the intercontinental ballistic missile fleet, helping ensure warfighters were ready to meet any contingency.

We would not have successfully accomplished our mission without the outstanding support of our DOD and industry partners and our surrounding communities. Undoubtably, 2017 will bring new challenges and opportunities. We will continue to work together as an enterprise team to meet those challenges and opportunities with tenacity and focus and once again deliver combat power for America. We will safely and consistently produce high quality products to meet warfighter requirements on time, at best value, because we are professional Airmen exceeding expectations through agile and innovative sustainment. I join my fellow commanders in thanking everyone for their outstanding teamwork and awesome support and look forward to a successful 2017.
