Birmingham VA Health Care Center to expand care for veterans and military in Huntsville The Birmingham VA Health Care System and Fox Army Health Center announced a strategic sharing agreement to enhance health care services for veterans and military in Huntsville.

An announcement from the 55th Chief of Engineers Lt. Gen. Scott Spellmon:

I’m thrilled to announce that the U.S. Senate has confirmed the nomination of MG(P) William H. “Butch” Graham to be the 56th Chief of Engineers and the next Commanding General of YOUR U.S. Army Corps of Engineers!

MG(P) Graham has both a depth and breadth of experience across the Regiment and the Army. Butch has served in numerous operational assignments and commanded at every level of USACE, including the Pittsburgh District, North Atlantic Division, and as the Deputy Commander General for Civil and Emergency Operations.

I not only count Butch as a colleague; I also consider him a close friend. He is a fine Soldier, leader, and engineer. He has proven time and again that he has the vision to continue our 249-year legacy and the drive to push USACE and our Regiment to new, innovative heights in the years to come.

We look forward to celebrating the remarkable achievement during the USACE Change of Command on Sept. 13, so be on the lookout for more ways to take part in this historic event.

Please join Sharise and me in congratulating Butch, Janet and the entire Graham family! The future of USACE and the Army Engineer Regiment is in excellent hands!

ESSAYONS! BUILDING STRONG! BE ALL YOU CAN BE!
