Department of Defense news release (Feb. 8, 2005): Fort Monmouth site for Army's new Life-Cycle Management Command (Feb. 2, 2005).

Army officials at Fort Monmouth, N.J., announced Feb. 2 the creation of a new Communications-Electronics Life Cycle Management Command (C-E LCMC). The new organization was restructured from three organizations--CECOM, the PEO for C3T, and the PEO for intelligence, electronic warfare, and sensors--and reflects the Army's desire to improve how equipment is provided to warfighters.

"Our personnel will be able to more effectively provide command and control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance tools to the warfighter that are highly developed, sustainable, reliable, usable, and abreast of current technology" Mazzucchi said.

Mazzucchi, who became the the commanding general of CECOM in June 2004, will continue to report to the commander of Army Materiel Command. Victor Ferlise, the former deputy to the commanding general of CECOM, has been designated the deputy to the commanding general for operations and support.
