The Air Force promoted Brig. Gen. Charles Shugg to vice commander of
its provisional Cyber Command at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana.
Shugg was the commander of the Joint Unmanned Aircraft Systems Center
of Excellence at Creech Air Force Base in Nevada.
Shugg replaces Maj. Gen. Randal Fullhart, who became the Director of
Global Reach Programs in the Air Force Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Acquisition. Fullhart left the cyber command in October
after staying less than three months.
The Air Force is expected to announce where the numbered unit will
permanently reside by June. In January, the service reduced the number
of bases it was considering to six from 17.
In his previous position, Shugg oversaw the development of unmanned
aircraft systems employment and training standards, providing relevant
products, analysis and information to the joint force.
Shugg also ensured the development and integration of common UAS
operating standards, capabilities, concepts, technologies, doctrine,
tactics, techniques, procedures and training.
