ON THE
COLE IS NEW PEO STRI; MADDUX RETIRES
Having just been pre- sented the charter of the program executive officer for simulation, training and instrumentation (PEO STRI), Brig. Gen. William E. Cole told the audience he was “honored and incred- ibly humbled. PEO STRI is a
fantastic organization,
executing a critical mis- sion for the Army during a challenging period for our country.” The Hon. Katrina
Vice Chief of Staff of the Army Gen. Daniel B. Allyn officiated at Mad- dux’s retirement ceremony the same day. Allyn thanked Maddux and his wife, Liz, for their dedicated service to the Army and the country. “Today, we honor a family that has committed itself to a lifetime of service, always taking the toughest jobs, always leading from the front and always, by example,” Allyn said.
“It has been an honor to work with the professionals at PEO STRI and other organizations these past two years,” said Maddux. “We play a critical role in ensuring our great Soldiers are prepared to conduct and win in complex joint operations though a hybrid blend of simulated training.”
McFarland,
assistant secretary of defense for acquisition performing the duties of the assistant secretary for the Army acquisition, logistics and technology and the Army acquisition executive, presided over the change of charter June
16 in Oviedo, Florida. Cole replaced Maj. Gen. Jonathan A. Mad- dux, who retired from the Army after 40 years of service.
McFarland had high praise for the outgoing and incoming PEOs. “Jon, you can be as proud of your people as they are of you,” she said. “Together, you have done an incredible job strengthening the link and solidifying the trust between Soldiers and the training they require for mission success. Thank you for your dynamic and distinguished leadership of PEO STRI.
“Bill is an accomplished officer who is no stranger to the world of a program executive officer,” McFarland said of Cole. “He has outstanding leadership skills that will enable him to continue PEO STRI’s tradition of strong and effective leadership.”
Maddux enlisted in the Army in 1976 and served a three-year tour with the 82nd Airborne Division before earning two bachelor’s degrees and receiv- ing his commission as a second lieutenant. He later earned three master’s degrees in addition to attending U.S. Army War College and Command and General Staff College. He held positions at the tactical, operational, joint and strategic levels during his career, including assignments as assis- tant to the principal military deputy of the ASA(ALT); deputy commanding general (CG) for support at the Combined Security Transition Command – Afghanistan; program executive officer for ammunition and CG, Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey; and project manager for Future Combat Systems net- work systems integration.
His military awards and decorations include the Legion of Merit (with four Bronze Oak Leaf Clusters); the Bronze Star Medal; Meritorious Service Medal (with three Bronze Oak Leaf Clusters); Army Commendation Medal (with Silver Oak Leaf Cluster); Army Achievement Medal (with Bronze Oak Leaf Cluster); the Master Parachutist Badge; Air Assault Badge; and Ranger Tab.
