PEO IEW&S is excited to share that our Deputy PEO, BG Ed Barker was promoted this afternoon during a ceremony hosted by LTG Robert Marion, Principal Military Deputy for ASA(ALT). Barker enlisted in 1988 as an Artillery Forward Observer before receiving a commission that led to him serving in Infantry and Intelligence units prior to joining the Army Acquisition Corps. “Given the breadth of experience he has, the depth that he has, and the instincts that he has developed from taking all the tough jobs and doing them very well, this promotion was not surprising at all,” said Marion.
