TSgt. Larry D. Bunn, 43, of Bossier City, La., died on March 7 as a result of a non-combat-related incident at an undisclosed base in Southwest Asia, announced the Defense Department on Monday. Bunn was assigned to Air Force Reserve Command’s 307th Maintenance Squadron at Barksdale AFB, La. He was supporting Operation Enduring Freedom, states DOD’s March 11 release.
The Air Force is shoring up its cyber defenses both on and off base for critical infrastructure such as water and electrical power, and industry experts are calling for more, even specialized, dedicated microgrids offsite to support USAF operations in case of a total blackout caused by cyberattacks.
