Air Force Space Command plans to induct six space visionaries into the Air Force Space and Missile Pioneers Hall of Fame at a ceremony scheduled for Aug. 24. The inductees are retired Air Force officers: Col. Wilbert F. Craig III, Brig. Gen. Maurice A. Cristadoro Jr., Maj. Gen. Ben I. Funk, Col. Francis J. Hale, Lt. Col. Albert W. Johnson, and Col. Richard S. Leghorn.
The Air Force budget would grow to $234 billion while Space Force spending would shrink to $26 billion under the White House's yearly ask.
