Three airmen from Pope AFB, N.C., received Army Commendation Medals for their work during the last Joint Forcible Entry Exercise, the largest in seven years, said Army officials. The airmen are: TSgt. Joe Thornton, 3rd Aerial Port Squadron; SSgt. Marc Tucker, 43rd Operations Group; and SrA. Michael Duque, 43rd Logistics Readiness Squadron.
While the Space Force is still making long-term plans to establish high-fidelity live and virtual test and training ranges in the coming years, officials say they're also working with operators to identify near-term gaps and quickly field capabilities to address them.
