The enlisted force of Air Force Special Operations Command honored Lt. Gen. Michael Wooley, outgoing AFSOC commander, with the Order of the Sword. MSgt. Andrea Porter reports that Wooley is the sixth AFSOC commander to be inducted into the order. A special guest at the ceremony, retired CMSAF James Binnicker, said of Wooley, “I have seen a lot of general officers in my life … I have not seen any that would equal his compassion, his interest and love for his enlisted corps.”
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
