The 926th Mission Support Squadron held an assumption of command ceremony here July 10 at the Enlisted Club. 

Maj. Amy Boehle assumed command of the squadron, which falls under the U.S. Air Force Reserve's 926th Group headquartered at Nellis. 

"I am humbled to command the 926th Mission Support Squadron," Major Boehle said. "I am coming into a highly-successful organization that has a short but great history, and I am thankful for the opportunity to carry out its mission and contribute to its success." 

The 926th MSS provides direct support to the 926th GP for all mission support-related matters and develops and implements wide-ranging policy affecting Reserve integration. The squadron also facilitates Total Force Integration initiatives by providing mission support to reservists assigned to the United States Air Force Warfare Center at Nellis and the 432nd Wing at Creech Air Force Base. 

As commander, Major Boehle advises the 926th GP commander on issues related to command and control, communications, logistics, personnel readiness, supply, security forces and military and civilian personnel. Additionally, she provides leadership and supervision in all aspects of training, planning, budgetary matters and deployment capability for the 926th MSS. 

"Major Boehle has earned this opportunity and I am excited to be the one to delegate these important responsibilities to her," Col. Herman Brunke, 926th Group commander, said. "She is absolutely the right person for this job and I know she will be an outstanding leader, taking great care of her people and providing valuable service to our group."

Major Boehle earned her ROTC commission from the University of New Mexico. While in the Regular Air Force, she served as a personnel officer in various capacities before transitioning into the Reserve in 2002. Major Boehle joined the 926th GP in 2008 as the executive officer before being selected to command the 926th MSS.
