Lieutenant General David Wilson, U.S. Army Deputy Chief of Staff, G-9 visited U.S. Army Garrison (USAG)-Miami on August 7, 2025.
Wilson toured the installation to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing service members and families. During his visit, Wilson observed the impact of key support services including the privatized housing project, Army Health Clinic SOUTHCOM, and Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation (FMWR) facilities including the Child Development Center and fitness center.
FMWR showcased their recent Mission: Jump Possible event, highlighted upcoming community partnerships with Army Community Services, and discussed Child and Youth Services advancements through the Florida Purple Schools initiative.
Wilson also met with key installation leaders – Lieutenant General Evan L. Pettus, Military Deputy Commander, U.S. Southern Command (USSOUTHCOM); Major General Julie L. Nethercot, Chief of Staff, USSOUTHCOM; and Brian K. Peterson, USAG-Miami Garrison Manager – to discuss quality of life initiatives on the installation.
“LTG Wilson’s visit to USAG-Miami and discussions with leaders at USSOUTHCOM highlighted both the successes and challenges in delivering essential quality of life services to our service members and their families. We’re committed to working collaboratively to address these challenges and ensure our service members have the support they need to maintain readiness and focus on the mission,” said Peterson.
Concluding his visit, Wilson underscored the importance of quality of life and service member support to maintain mission readiness. He highlighted the critical role of the civilian workforce in supporting the warfighter mission.
