Christine Carlson-Glazer and Gino Sciorilli have been selected to serve in the Air Force’s Air Mobility Command (AMC) Civic Leader Program. They will represent Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JBMDL).
Air Mobility Command is one of the Air Force’s 11 major commands. It is headquartered at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois and is responsible for ensuring the U.S.’s armed forces can respond anywhere in the world in a matter of hours.
JBMDL is one of 14 Air Force bases that make up the AMC. Each of these 14 bases nominates civic leaders from their local communities.
AMC civic leaders are advisors, key communicators and advocates for the AMC and for Air Force issues. Civic leaders confer on official AMC matters with AMC Commanders and officials.
Carlson-Glazer is vice president of government, community and military relations at Deborah Heart and Lung Center in Browns Mill, the only hospital in the Delaware Valley that focuses exclusively on cardiac, vascular and lung diseases.
She also serves as an advisory board member of the Defense Enhancement Coalition and the Community Advisory Board of Ft. Dix.
“I am honored to be selected as an AMC civic leader,” said Carlson-Glazer. “I look forward to helping bridge the gap between the military and civilians, provide ideas and feedback to the AMC Commander about public attitudes toward AMC and Air Force activities and communicate timely information about AMC and Air Force programs to the community.”
Carlson-Glazer was an Honorary Commander at JBMDL for three years and now serves as an Honorary Commander Emeritus.
Sciorilli is the president of Ocean Salon Systems in Lakewood and serves as Chair of the Military Support Alliance of New Jersey, an all-volunteer organization focused on improving the quality of life for active-duty military members, veterans and their families at the Joint Base and other military installations in New Jersey.
“This is an amazing opportunity,” said Sciorilli. “Most people do not get a close-up view into military operations like this. Our job is to take this information back to our civilian communities to help broaden awareness of the extraordinary work the military does in keeping our nation safe.”
Sciorilli also served three years as an Honorary Commander at Joint Base MDL, and following several years as Honorary Commander Emeritus, he was assigned as an Honorary Commander again last year.
