irmen currently deployed to Southwest Asia from Dyess AFB, Tex., to build bombs for the B-1Bs supporting the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing have produced nearly 400 munitions over the past couple of weeks, reports Capt. Teresa Sullivan. They work 24/7 in 12- to 15-hour shifts building, testing, inspecting, storing, and maintaining all the munitions needed by these strike aircraft in the combat theater. And, they’re doing it in sweltering hear, from 125-degree days to 90-degree nights.
Lt. Gen. Douglas A. Schiess will be nominated by President Donald Trump as the next Chief of Space Operations, the service’s top uniformed leader, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine.
