Long Beach Senior Squadron 150 commander Maj. David Powell appointed 2nd Lt. Craig Roalf as the squadron's new deputy commander, succeeding 1st Lt. Rommel Anacan who served as deputy commander for two and a half years.

Craig Roalf as my deputy commander because of his hard work, his extensive dedication to Civil Air Patrol, and his extraordinary passion for aviation.  I am looking forward to working with him to develop a stellar squadron in 2019 that emphasizes emergency services and aerospace education."
