KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany — Chief Master Sgt. Craig Adams, currently with U.S. Air Forces in Europe and U.S. Air Forces Africa, has been selected to be the top enlisted leader of U.S. European Command in Stuttgart, according to a Pentagon news release.

Adams will rejoin Gen. Philip Breedlove, the former USAFE commander for whom Adams worked since arriving at USAFE last September. Breedlove took over as EUCOM commander last month.

Adams grew up in Tiffin, Ohio, and entered the Air Force in June 1987, according to his Air Force biography. He was promoted to chief master sergeant on Dec. 1, 2006.

He’s been assigned to Europe since November 2011. Prior to his current duties at USAFE, he was the command chief for Third Air Force at Ramstein Air Base. Before his assignments in Germany, Adams served as the command chief for the 455th Air Expeditionary Wing at Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan, for one year.
