The Defense Department announced May 21 that 1st Lt. Roslyn L. Schulte, 25, had died May 20 of wounds received from an improvised explosive device near Kabul, Afghanistan. The St. Louis, Mo., native had deployed to Operation Enduring Freedom from Headquarters Pacific Air Forces at Hickam AFB, Hawaii. According to an Air Force release last year about a Virtual Flag exercise, Schulte had served as an intelligence and reconnaissance officer with the 613th Air and Space Operations Center, part of 13th Air Force at Hickam.
The Space Force relies entirely on data—but it lacks the systems and tools to analyze and share that data properly even within the service, let alone with international partners, officials said May 1.
