U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Garrett Yee, assistant to the director of the Defense Information Systems Agency, retired April 28 among 300 of his closest family, friends and colleagues during a ceremony at the Army Navy Country Club in Arlington, Virginia overlooking the Washington Monument and U.S. Capitol.
"For me, it always has been and always will be about partnerships," Yee said. "Whether it's meeting with mission partners to make sure we get them exactly what they need or working with industry partners to help deliver our warfighters best-value capabilities."
Since his arrival at DISA, Yee provided leadership for the agency's $13 billion information technology and cybersecurity portfolio, and a 19,000 combined military, civilian and contract workforce that provides IT support to the president, secretary of defense, Joint Chiefs of Staff, combatant commanders and DOD components.
Lt. Gen. Robert J. Skinner, DISA director and JFHQ-DODIN commander, hosted the retirement ceremony and highlighted some of Yee's contributions to the agency including his role as the senior mission partner executive.
"Garrett made a difference with everything he was involved with," Skinner said. "When it comes to the customer's voice and the ability to find creative solutions for difficult problems, his presence will be missed."
