Today's Featured Biography

 

 
Kenneth Eickmann


Cecelia
It was great to hear from you. I have lost touch with so many because Charlene and I were stationed around the world for over 30 years. We were married the week after I graduated from UT in 1967 and will celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary in June. I have attached a few military pictures and a copy of my military bio. Feel free to use whatever you like.
Ken

LIEUTENANT GENERAL KENNETH E. EICKMANN

Retired June 1, 1998.

After high school, Kenneth entered the Air Force in 1967 as a graduate of the University of Texas' Reserve Officer Training Corps program. One week after graduation from the University of Texas he married his wife, Charlene. They will be celebrating their 50th anniversary this June (2017). He and Charlene have two boys and one girl who have given them six grandchildren; three boys and three girls.

He eventually completed 22 assignments while in the Air Force, including a stint from 1994 to 1996 as Commander, Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center, Tinker Air Force Base; the largest military and industrial complex in the U.S. Department of Defense. During this time he led the federal rescue and recovery efforts following the 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. His success inspired the governor of Oklahoma to declare July 11, 1995, as "General Ken Eickmann Day" in the State of Oklahoma. His last assignment on active duty was Commander, Aeronautical Systems Center, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, where he led the nation's largest center of excellence for research, development, and acquisition of aircraft, aeronautical equipment, and munitions.

Ken retired June 1, 1998 and currently is a Senior Research Fellow, Energy Institute and Deputy Director, Center for Energy Security at University of Texas.
