USA: Army Corps Galveston Welcomes New Deputy Commander

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Galveston District welcomed its new deputy commander Maj. Marty Maldonado. Outgoing deputy Lt. Col. James Schultze was selected to command the 15th Engineer Battalion based in Schweinfurt, Germany.

“The district is fortunate to have Maj. Maldonado onboard and I am confident that he will quickly become an invaluable member of the district,” said Col. Christopher Sallese, USACE Galveston District commander. “His extensive background in engineering coupled with increasingly progressive roles as a leader makes him a perfect addition to our team.”

A native of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, Maldonado graduated from the University of Central Florida with a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering Technology, received his commission through Army ROTC and later graduated from the Engineer Officers Basic Course in Fort Leonard Wood, Mo.
