GDF Air Corps commissions three new facilities

THE Guyana Defence Force (GDF) Air Corps recently commissioned three new facilities to cater to the comfort of the ranks.

The warrant offices and other rank accommodations, the passengers’ lounge, and the new mess facility and club are the facilities that enhance the quality of life, as well as the services provided at Air Station London.

Chief of Staff, Brigadier Godfrey Bess and other members of the Force leadership team attended the brief but important commissioning event.

Because of the Corps’ increased resources and capabilities, the Commanding Officer of the Air Corps, Lieutenant Colonel Mohinder Ramjag, praised the Force’s leadership for their commitment to seeing the projects through to completion.

In his brief remarks, Brigadier Bess repeated President and Commander-in-Chief Dr. Irfaan Ali’s goals for the Air Corps to become the best in the region. He explained to the ranks that he expected them to take steps to preserve and maintain the new facilities.

Brigadier Bess, who will retire shortly, told the Air Corps soldiers he was looking forward to hearing good things about them.

Brigadier Bess retires in another month. “I am happy to have served as your Chief of Staff and I am grateful to every one of you for putting your best efforts forward and seeing to it that the Air Corps operated properly and efficiently,” he said.
