The 30th Space Wing, Vandenberg AFB, Calif., has deactivated the 2nd Space Launch Squadron and activated a new unit—the 30th Launch Control Support Squadron—with a broader mission. The 2nd SLS was charged with Titan rocket operations. The Titan era ended at Vandenberg with the launch of the last Titan IVB. (DR, 10/21/05) Officials say the 30th LCSS will handle “factory-to-flight payload processing support, training, and management of launch infrastructure.”
Air Force Basic Military Training leaders say changes implemented as part of BMT 2.0 are generating positive results so far—especially when it comes to creating “airminded” new Airmen.
