L-3: New MS division HQ

MADISON, Miss. - L-3 Communications is re-establishing a division headquarters here and naming long-time Mississippian John “Ed” Boyington Jr. to lead it. Boyington will become president of L-3 Logistics Solutions, which should dispel rumors that the NY-based L-3 would be closing the Mississippi office that overhauls and distributes parts for military aircraft. Boyington worked for L-3 from 2003-09 including serving as president of L-3 Vertex Aerospace in Madison. Boyington is a retired Navy rear admiral. (Washington Times 11/20/15)
