Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Bozard was removed from command<\/a> of the 113th Wing<\/a> at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland on Aug. 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It remains unclear why Bozard was fired from command<\/a> of the wing. Senior Master Sgt. Craig Clapper, a spokesman for the 113th, said he was not removed due to suspicions of \u201ccriminal or immoral\u201d activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Col. Christopher Shepard is now serving as interim commander of the Washington, D.C., Air National Guard wing. Another officer, who has not yet been named, will assume command of the wing on Sept. 15, Clapper said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
