The 22nd Space Operations Squadron’s detachment based at RAF Oakhanger, Britain, recently acquired a new 43-foot Antedo antenna, replacing a legacy antenna at the site. The new antenna is a key part of the Air Force Satellite Control Network and went through two separate segment verification tests as well as integrated system tests prior to passing the required 99 percent sortie success rate.
Airmen and Guardians in the Active and Reserve component, as well as civilian employees, in “mission critical and high-risk populations” are now required to receive influenza vaccinations annually to “preserve force readiness,” according to a recent Department of the Air Force memo.
