If you look at the bottom of that AF Times page, the AF relieved several other O-5 and O-6 Commanders as well.
Wow, they might want to relook their assessment and selection process for Command billets.

I think the ICBMs belong to STRATCOM, along with the bombers and Navy boomers, and is either AF or Navy commanded. I believe that AMC is the AF billet.
