We are saddened to report that MG Anthony “Tony” Potts, was the only fatality of a single engine plane crash last week in Havre de Grace, Maryland. Commissioning in the Aviation branch in 1986, general Potts was a Master Army Aviator having flown the AH64 Apache helicopter. During his service in the Acquisition Corps he held several posts including four years as Program Executive Officer Soldier where he oversaw multiple initiatives including the Next Generation Squad Weapons program.
Most recently, MG Potts served as Program Executive Office Command, Control & Communications-Tactical and was planning to retire soon.
General Potts will be greatly missed by his colleagues, friends and family.
May He Rest In Peace.
We’ve lost a great leader.
