52nd Fighter Wing from Brig. Gen. Chris Weggeman during a change of command ceremony in Hangar 1 here July 3.
More than 400 people attended the event, to include Spangdahlem Airmen, families and local community leaders.
Lt. Gen. Craig A. Frank-lin, Third Air Force com-mander, presided over the
ceremony and spoke to the strengths of both the outgo-ing and incoming command-ers.
“A change of command is a wonderful event,” Franklin said. “It’s sad on one part, be-cause we’re saying goodbye to a wonderful commander, Brig. Gen. Chris Weggeman. But the feeling of excitement that comes with a change of command is from welcoming the new command team. And we’re very excited to wel-come Col. David Julazadeh.”
