Description
Summary:General Louis C. Wagner, Jr. assumed command of AMC on 14 April 1987 and served until 26 September 1989, virtually the end of FY89. This command synopsis, therefore, serves as a platform to overview his entire two and one-half year tenure as AMC commander. General Wagner, an armor officer who had served as Commanding General, U.S. Army Armor Center/Commandant United States Army Armor School, came to AMC with an equally strong background in the research and development aspect of materiel development and management. His career in the research and development arena included tours as test officer and Chief of the Armor Test Division at the U.S. Army Arctic Test Center in the mid-1960s; staff officer in the Weapons System Analysis Directorate of the Office of the Assistant Vice Chief of Staff of the Army in the early 1970s; several positions with the Army Materiel Acquisition Review Committee (AMARC), culminating with that of Special Assistant for AMARC in the mid-197Os; and several positions on the staff of the Army's DCS for Research, Development and Acquisition (DCSRDA) in the late 197Os and early 1980s. Immediately prior to assuming command of AMC, from August 1984 to April 1987, he served as the DCSRDA.
