Chris Merwin Appointed President of R3 Strategic Support Group
Coronado-based R3 Strategic Support Group has named Chris Merwin president after two years with the company.
R3 provides strategic support across a variety of special military operations. Mr. Merwin originally joined the company as EOD program manager and was promoted to director of operations last year. In this role, he managed over 25 contracts and supervised 170 direct labor professionals.
“I am honored to serve in this role and look forward to furthering the company's mission,” said Merwin. “Leading an employee-owned company whose mission is to serve our nation's most professional military forces is a unique and rewarding experience.”
R3 CEO Mark Saunders announced the promotion and accompanying restructuring last month, with board approval.
