The Air Force apparently is gearing up to celebrate its 60th anniversary—which will be Sept. 18, 2007, the date the Air Force became a separate service. USAF leaders already have named Col. Benjamin J. Hulsey to serve as Director for the 60th Anniversary Task Force. Hulsey’s last post was as director of operations management at Air Mobility Command’s Tanker Airlift Control Center, Scott AFB, Ill.
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.
