The 8th Air Force Museum at Barksdale AFB, La., on Oct. 6 unveiled a marker honoring retired Maj. Gen. Lewis Lyle, who flew 69 combat missions in a B-17 during World War II. The plaque is near a display of a B-17 bearing the tail markings of one of Lyle’s units, reported the Shreveport Times. The 90-year-old Lyle retired from the service in 1967 as commander of the 818th Strategic Aerospace Division.
The Space Force relies entirely on data—but it lacks the systems and tools to analyze and share that data properly even within the service, let alone with international partners, officials said May 1.
