Operation Warp Speed's mission is to develop and deliver a COVID-19 vaccine to 300 million Americans. Whicker, who oversees TACOM's Integrated Logistics Support Center in Warren, Michigan - is now working as Operation Warp Speed's deputy chief of supply, production, and distribution where she is among the senior logisticians coordinating a herculean effort.
