The Hedgrens succeed Commissioners Lawrence and Nancy Moretz, who are retiring from active service.
In an interview with Good News!, Colonel Steve Hedgren, who has also served with his wife in the U.S. Central and Southern territories, said that after two years in the East, they feel right at home.
“We love where we are, we love what we do, and we love the people we work with,” he said. “So if we had to be anywhere in the world, this is where we would want to be.”
Hedgren said they received the phone call from the Chief of the Staff in London, just two days before the official announcement was released.
