White Sands Missile Range Transitions Command and Deactivates Test Center

In a significant organizational shift, White Sands Missile Range held a ceremony last week to mark the deactivation of the White Sands Test Center and the transition of command from Col. Matthew Johnson. This event signifies a major change in operations at the Army post, impacting the personnel and future missions conducted at the facility. The cased unit colors symbolize the formal closure of the Test Center, which has played a key role in military testing and operations. This transition is part of a broader reorganization aimed at enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the range's operations.
