Fort Detrick to begin new command lineup Friday ceremony
Fort Detrick will host a formal change of command Friday at 10 a.m. as Col. Charles W. Churchill relinquishes to Col. Larry G. Johnson. Johnson comes from Pirmasens Germany, where he led the 37th Medical Supply Optical and Maintenance Battalion and served as Deputy Commander for Operations in Europe. The ceremony at Blue and Gray Field features the 76th Division band from Massachusetts and marks Churchill’s move to the Surgeon General’s Office to improve battlefield hospitals.
