Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex now has a new commander.

Brig. General Walter Lindsley took over as commander of the industrial complex today in a ceremony at the Museum of Aviation.

Lindsley replaces Brig. General Cedric George, who is moving on to a job at the Pentagon.

He says Robins is making steady progress and doesn't intend to change their way of doing business.

Three Air Force C-130s and a C-17 conducted the fourth airdrop of food and water for thousands of threatened Iraqi citizens on Sunday.

The aircraft, escorted by U.S. fighter jets, dropped 88 bundles of supplies for displaced Yazidis who had fled local cities to nearby mountains after death threats from Islamic State fighters, according to U.S. Central Command. To date, U.S. aircraft have dropped more than 74,000 meals and 15,000 gallons of drinking water.

The Defense Department is closely watching the Ebola epidemic, establishing a small internal task force to evaluate ways to support international efforts to stop the outbreak, the Pentagon's top spokesman said Tuesday.

Navy Rear Adm. John Kirby said DoD already is helping in Liberia, with a small number of military and civilian public health officials from U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases, or USAMRIID, providing support.

"Clearly, we're watching this as closely as everybody else is and it's an interagency effort here in the United States," Kirby said. "It's not just the Pentagon, it's CDC, USAID, it's State Department. We're all talking about this and working on this."
