The Delaware Air National Guard saw a new leader take the colors today at New Castle ANG Base, Delaware.

Brig. Gen. Wendy B. Wenke assumed the role of Assistant Adjutant General, Air, Delaware National Guard, taking command from Col. David Walker.

Delaware’s Adjutant General, Maj. Gen. Carol Timmons, passed the unit colors, and symbol of the unit’s leadership, to Wenke. She said she looked forward to Wenke’s “energy…drive, and priorities for the Delaware Air National Guard.”

Timmons explained that Walker could not attend a change of command ceremony due to a family emergency, embodying her stated priority of putting “family first.”

Wenke joined the Delaware National Guard to serve as the Delaware Chief of Staff-Air in March of this year. She is a 31-year veteran of the National Guard, starting her career as a navigator for KC-135 tanker aircraft.

Wenke said that she will focus on “rebuilding our military readiness by getting back to basics.”

“I will empower our Airmen to act, because that is what our Airmen want to do,” she said. “Every Airman will be a problem-solver at their level.”

Walker is now supporting U.S. Cyber Command at Ft. Meade, Md.
