Remember the Fallen Alethea Smock 21st Space Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. —This Memorial Day, take a moment to remember the fallen. The 21st Space Wing has suffered three losses in its short history including Airman 1st Class Matthew Seidler, Capt. David Lyon and Staff Sgt. Austin Bieren. We are deeply saddened to have lost these three Airmen in the line of duty. In this week’s Space Observer you will find an American flag on the center page. Take this flag and hang it outside your cube, work area or in your office window as a show of support of their sacrifice. Our solidarity is what keeps the United States Air Force the most powerful Air Force in the world. On Memorial Day, please honor those who have given all. Thank those who continue to serve in harm’s way. Hug the families who have lost loved ones. And think of those who were never able to make it home. We are all forever privileged to be a part of this great nation.

What Does Memorial Day Mean to You? PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — It’s safe to say that when people think of Memorial Day, they feel many different emotions. Some people see it as a three-day weekend where barbequing and camping are the norm. Some have lost loved ones during battle and will forever remember the day as a time to reflect on their loved ones ultimate sacrifice. There are even some that don’t really understand the true meaning behind the holiday at all. This article is to provide a little history regarding the holiday and to help explain why so many people will forever be affected by its true meaning. Memorial Day was established in 1868 after the American Civil War and was originally called Decoration Day. It was established as a time for the nation to decorate the graves

Maj. Dawn Baker 21st Logistics Readiness Squadron

from the civil war with flowers. However, the northern and southern states had separate holiday traditions honoring the fallen up until World War I. The United States Government eventually merged these holidays into one to become Memorial Day, a day to honor all Americans who have died while serving their country. To date, approximately 1.3 million Americans have lost their lives in battle.

These Airmen, Soldiers, Seamen, Coast Guard and Marines gave their lives for the freedom of their country, “our country” and its citizens. Sometimes well intentioned citizens say “Happy Memorial Day” or “Enjoy your threeday weekend” not knowing that a phrase like this stirs up emotions in those that have served, lost a loved one, or been affected directly by war. Some of these war survivors whether they be family, friends, or a military member themselves are forever changed by what they have experienced and those they have lost. Some will become staunch military supporters, others will become war activists but all of them are forever changed. To them, Memorial Day will never be a holiday that is celebrated, it will be a holiday where their loved ones will be remembered.

Action Line The 21st Space Wing maintains a commander's action line, a direct link to the 21st Space Wing commander. The wing commander encourages its use. Concerns should be addressed at the lowest possible level in the chain of command and elevated as necessary.

This is not to say that barbeques and family are not a great way to spend the weekend, however, we must all remember the sacrifices of others. Memorial Day is to celebrate the freedoms that these sons, daughters, mothers, aunts, uncles, friends, and fathers died to defend. May the sacrifices they made never be forgotten. I would urge all to take a pause this upcoming Memorial Day to truly remember the men and women that have given their all in defense of this great nation. I for one understand the sacrifices that they and their families have made. I will always defend this country and am willing to give my life in its defense…why? So that we and generations to come may continue to enjoy the freedoms and liberties that so many have fought for.

Backing the Blue: Police Week held on Peterson Air Force Base By Alethea Smock 21st Space Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. - The 21st Security Forces Squadron at Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, wrapped up a week of activities for National Police Week, May 15-19, 2017. National Police Week is a time for citizens to recognize the law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty. The week was established in 1962 as a joint resolution in Congress. “We are privileged to be a part of a larger community of peace officers around the country,” said Tim Omdal, 21st SFS deputy director. “Police week gives us an opportunity to challenge our skills and also work with local officers to recognize our fallen brethren.” Building 1425 known more commonly as the shoot house, hosted several events including an obstacle course, BBQ and combatives event. All events were designed to highlight the challenges defenders face when apprehending criminals. “We used non-lethal weapons, our redman safety suit and other obstacles to practice the skills we need to prepare,” said Staff Sgt. Zachary Hippely, 21st SFS personnel and programs NCO in charge. “These obstacles represent the challenges law enforcement officers face day to day.” A round robin golf tournament was held May 17 with support from 34 attendees. Base members had a chance to experience the sensation of distracted driving by using a simulator set up in the 21st Mission Support Group building. By experiencing how distracted driving can lead to an accident, officers hoped to demonstrate the lethality of drunk driving and texting

Senior leaders discuss US space posture By Staff Sgt. Alyssa C. Gibson Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs

WASHINGTON (AFNS) — On May 17, 2017, Air Force senior leaders testified before the Senate Armed Service Committee Strategic Forces subcommittee on military space, organization, policy and programs. Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson, Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David L. Goldfein, Gen. John Raymond, the Air Force Space Command commander and Lt. Gen. Samuel Greaves, the Space and Missile Systems Center commander, answered questions about the Air Forces current space capabilities and those needed for the future. The team presented the senators with information as to the departments plan for acquiring future and updated space systems to meet the evolution of space as a warfighting domain. It’s obvious, but it’s probably worth repeating, that the U.S. is heavily dependent on space, and (our adversaries) know it is a vulnerability, Wilson said. In any conflict, space will be contested and we haven’t always assumed that in the past. There’s been a change in culture, a change in planning and training going on in the United States military because we cannot take space dominance for granted. While there is a lot more to do, I’ve been initially pleased by some of the things I see and what the Air Force is doing to improve training, to identify gaps and to experiment with new concepts of operations. Particularly in the last 18-24 months, there’s a great deal that is going on with respect to addressing the needs of the nation to be able to prevail in space. More than 80 percent of the Defense Departments space actions are handled by the Air Force, and the service views space as one of its core missions. Space superiority, like air superiority, is not an American birthright, it requires vigilance and action, Goldfein said. We have many more steps ahead of us, but America’s Airmen remain committed to evolving our space organization, strategy, requirements, architecture and forces to adapt and ensure we gain and maintain space superiority. The Air Force has built upon 60 years of space operations by normalizing, integrating and elevating space, and streamlining decision-making for the enterprise. Currently, the Air Force is in a strategic shift from treating space as a benign domain from which the service monitors, senses and reports, to a warfighting domain in which it would fight should a war

WASHINGTON - Secretary of the Air Force Heather Wilson, center, and Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David Goldfein, to her right, testify before the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Strategic Forces May 17, 2017, in Washington, D.C. With Wilson and Goldfein were Lt. Gen.

John Raymond, the Air Force Space Command commander and Cristina Chapin, the General Accounting Office director of acquisition and sourcing management. The committee examined military space organization, policy, and programs. start or extend into space. According to Goldfein, the DOD and the Air Force are focused on four key areas within the space enterprise. First, solid strategy and policy must be in place for the Joint Chiefs of Staff to act upon. Next, the strategy and policy must be derived into a warfighting concept of operations that not only focuses on joint warfighting, but also integrates space across each warfighting domain. From the concept of operations comes solid acquisition requirements. We have to acquire at a pace that allows us to be faster than our adversaries who are all investing in ways to take away our advantage, Goldfein said. And the final element is how to organize, train, equip and present ready forces so the combatant

commander can fight should a war extend into space. According to the AFSPC commander, space must be on the same level of acquisition decision authority with deliberate oversight of execution as each of the other warfighting domains. Operationally, we are very sound, we’re the worlds best space forces, and that shouldn’t be lost to anybody, Raymond said. I do think though should the domain become a contested domain, we have to have the ability to move fast. And that’s been one of my focuses to make sure we have the operational policies, processes and procedures, and the acquisition capabilities to move fast. This was Wilsons first Congressional hearing since swearing in as the 24th Secretary of the Air Force.

Alpha Warrior comes to Pete By Steve Kotecki 21st Space Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. -- White chalk dust floating through the air, the glint of sunlight hitting the swinging chains, the smell of sweat, the grunts of exertion centering around an enormous metal cage. No, this isn’t some ancient gladiatorial battle ground, it’s the Alpha Warrior battle rig. Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, hosted an Alpha Warrior event on May 13, 2017. The event included celebrities, and competition. Alpha Warrior is part of a new initiative by the Air Force to develop a new type of functional fitness for Airmen. The Battle Rig tour started April 18, 2017 at MacDill Air Force Base, Florida and is touring Air Force bases across the country in an effort to get as many Airmen involved as possible. The tour also includes notable American Ninja Warrior contestants that show Airmen the ropes of the battle rig, and offer tips and encouragement to completing for the fastest time. Kacy Catanzaro, the first female to qualify for the finals of American Ninja Warrior and the first woman to complete a city finals course, was here to show off her warrior prowess and answer questions. “We’re really excited to be working with the Air Force,” Catanzaro said. “Everybody can do the course, it brings in functional fitness and fun. It gives them opportunity to do things they might not normally do and breaking the boring routine of the gym.” Alpha Warrior is built to incorporate the four pillars of Air Force functional fitness; physical, mental, spiritual, and social. While the physical, mental and social aspects of the course are easy to see the spiritual side might not be as readily apparent. “The course is helpful for overcoming obstacles in life in general,” said Karsten Williams, Alpha warrior representative and American Ninja Warrior competitor. “It

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. – Airmen with the 21st Civil Engineer Squadron set up two tents during a beddown exercise during their monthly Prime Base Engineer Emergency Force day, May 18, 2017, at Peterson Air Force Base, Colo. Approximately 100 21st CES Airmen came together for the Prime BEEF Day, to complete a beddown exercise. The squadron was split up into two teams for the day: logistics planning group and hands-on training. By Staff Sgt. Tiffany Lundberg 21st Space Wing Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Approximately 100 21st Civil Engineer Squadron Airmen came together for their monthly training, or Prime Base Engineer Emergency Force day, May 18, at Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado. For one day a month, the 21st CES conducts home-station contingency training to maintain and hone in their response skills required by Air Force Instruction 10-210, Prime Base Engineer Emergency Force Program. This month, eight shops came together to complete a specific scenario given to them. The squadron was split into two teams, one team completed beddown planning and the other team executed beddown planning by erecting a portion of a tent city. The scenario included bedding down approximately 2500 troops, 23 aircraft and operational space assets. “We wanted to include some of the space mission to make it more Peterson AFB specific,” said Maj. Rachel Hamlyn, 21st CES operations flight commander. “The Airmen on the planning team took the requirements presented in the

scenario and developed a plan for tents, electrical loads, power generation, water and fuels. Engineer assistants drafted the actual plan to show where everything would be laid down within an air base as part of the scenario.” “Our team of 30 planners from eight different (Air Force Specialty Codes) were able to design a small city of about 400 facilities in the span of eight hours which included the necessary water and waste water treatment plants, power plants, and corresponding utility line infrastructure,” said Capt Matthew Akaydin, 21st CES operations engineering element chief. “It’s truly humbling to watch the different functional experts working with each other to get a viable plan on paper in less than a day to support 2,500 people and three separate missions.” The other team executed setting up a portion of the airbase. “This hands on portion of the beddown is what we would actually do on the ground setting up tents, hooking them up to power, setting up air conditioning, and additional tasks like that,” said 1st Lt. Jeannette Dy, 21st CES readiness and emergency management flight commander. “We wanted to give the Airmen a chance to hone in on their skills. Here,

they can do the tasks multiple times and make mistakes to learn from them which really helps when we are down range putting these skills to use.” For this particular Prime BEEF Day, the initial exercise planning team reached out to Team Pete space control squadrons to get a better understanding on what space operators need in particular in deployed locations. The planning team then implemented the support requirements to the exercise participants, said Dy. Including space assets in this month’s exercise helped not only provide the 21st CES Airmen a better understanding on what they can do to support space operations but also the space operators a better understanding on what the 21st CES can provide them. For most Prime BEEF days, the units mainly trained within their respective shops. This month, the units came together, to train together. “We have 12 enlisted civil engineer career fields within our squadron; this was a great opportunity for eight of them to come together and train,” said Hamlyn. “The goal of this month’s Prime BEEF day was to train, increase contingency skills, and to build confidence.”

Enlisted Airmen selected for 2017 nursing program By Kat Bailey Air Force Personnel Center Public Affairs

JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIORANDOLPH, Texas (AFNS) — Almost three dozen active-duty enlisted Airmen have been selected for the 2017 Nurse Enlisted Commissioning Program following the April 17-19, 2017, selection board at the Air Force Personnel Center. The board met to review records and identify the top applicants for a commissioning opportunity in this critical career field, said Tech. Sgt. Michael McCabe, the Nurse Career Management branch NCO in charge. This year, 35 Airmen were selected. Qualified, dedicated nurses are critical to the military and civilian communities, McCabe said. Candidates go through rigorous screening to identify those who are ready for the responsibility and highly likely to succeed in the school and career field. Airmen selected will attend nursing school full-time this fall, allowing them to focus on their education. They’ll earn a baccalaureate degree in nursing at a college or university with an Air Force ROTC detachment or a college or university with a “cross-town agreement,” and attend school year-round in a resident-based program for up to 24 consecutive calendar months, to include summer sessions. While they’re in school, NECP students receive all pay and allowances, McCabe said. In addition, senior airmen selected are promoted to staff sergeant prior to starting the program. After graduating, Airmen who pass the National Council Licensure Examination and receive their nursing licenses will be commis-

Mattis welcomes new SecAF home By Master Sgt. Bryan Franks Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs

WASHINGTON (AFNS) — Defense Secretary Jim Mattis ceremoniously swore in Heather Wilson as the 24th Secretary of the Air Force at the Pentagon May 16, 2017. “If we wanted to do one thing to Webster’s Unbridged Dictionary to define a Patriot with no words, we could put up Heather Wilson’s picture right next to the word, and we would explain what a patriot truly is,” Mattis said. “On behalf of the entire Air Force community, on the behalf of the Department of Defense -- welcome home.” Wilson, who was administratively sworn in as secretary May 12, 2017, has more than 35 years of professional experience in a range of leadership and management roles in the military, higher education, government and private industry. Mattis called Wilson well suited to lead the Air Force and said he needs her ideas and wisdom as the Air Force begins a new chapter. Mattis said he, Wilson and Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David L. Goldfein are committed to restoring the readiness of the force, modernizing and advancing new capabilities to meet future threats, and developing exceptional leaders to command the finest combat force in the world. “History is not predetermined or static. History hangs on a hinge. Air supremacy is not America’s ordained right and there are other hands pushing on history’s door,” Mattis said. “By Secretary Wilson’s leadership, by the superior service of America’s Airmen…they push in vain…the U.S. Air Force must be better than anyone else.” Goldfein and Wilson first served together as cadets at the U.S. Air Force Academy where they both took the oath of office for the first time as members of the same class. “Here we stand together again as you repeat these same sacred words. What a journey it has been, and what a journey it will be,” Goldfein said. “We follow in the footsteps of service secretaries and chiefs of the past who have put their heart and their soul into building the most combat capable and lethal Air Force the world has ever known.” From the start, Wilson said she is focused on not taking air and space power for granted. “We have got a lot of work to do under the guidance of Secretary Defense Mattis and with the support of the United States Congress we will restore the readiness of the force so that we can win any fight, anytime, anywhere,” Wilson said. “We’re going to cost effectively modernize the force and drive innovation to bring new capabilities to the service of liberty, and underpinning it all will be a commitment to people. Thank you to the Airmen who protect the freedom we enjoy. You and your families represent the best of what it means to be an American.”
