Air Force Special Operations Command will host a Warrior CARE Summit in April for wounded, injured, or ill Active Duty members and their families. The event, which will take place near Hurlburt Field, Fla., is intended to “build support” for AFSOC’s wounded warrior community, said Li?sa Dunaway, AFSOC Warrior CARE (Connection, Awareness, Resources, Endurance) program manager, in a release. “We have an amazing team of people who are looking at the heart of the challenges our airmen and families may be facing,” said Dunaway. “AFSOC wants to give back to them—for the sacrifices they endured not only physically or mentally, but as a family.” Space is limited to 50 Active Duty members, according to the release.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
