“It has been an absolute honor and privilege to serve with the talented team of NAVSUP professionals in Bahrain, United Arab Emirates and Oman,” said Fisher. “I’m amazed everyday by the team’s genuine dedication and amazing proficiency in providing logistics support operations for warfighters and dependents throughout the region. I will always cherish this opportunity to serve with the finest professionals in the Navy.”
Fisher’s next assignment is at NAVSUP Headquarters as the assistant commander of Operations and Warfare Engagement (N3/N5).

I’m excited to serve alongside this outstanding team and to help continue our stellar reputation and service to U.S. Naval Forces Central Command and the 33 nations of Combined Maritime Forces. I want to thank Capt. Fisher for his outstanding leadership and dedication to this command."
