Whiteman AFB is a joint-service base, with Air Force, Army, and Navy units, located 70 miles east-southeast of Kansas City, Missouri. The host unit at Whiteman is the 509th Bomb Wing (509 BW) assigned to the Eighth Air Force of the Air Force Global Strike Command. The 509 BW operates the B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber, designed to be employed to strike high-value targets that are either out of conventional aircraft range or considered to be too heavily defended for conventional aircraft to strike without a high risk of loss. Whiteman AFB is the only permanent base for the stealth bomber. Other aircraft assigned to Whiteman and utilizing its runways include the A-10 Thunderbolt II ground-attack fighter, the T-38 Talon jet trainer, and the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter. The outstanding rating marks the latest milestone in Garney’s multifaceted career. In 2012 LMG Construction Services was honored by the Missouri Legislature as an outstanding small business.

DCN: 12053 94. Otis Air National Guard Base, MA, Lambert St. Louis International Airport Air Guard Station, MO, and Atlantic City Air Guard Station, NJ (AF 25) a. Realign Otis ANGB, MA. Distribute the fifteen F-15 aircraft assigned to the 102~ Fighter Wing's (ANG) to meet the Primary Aircraft Authorizations (PAA) requirements established by the Base Closure and Realignment recommendations of the Secretary of Defense, as amended by the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission. The 253d Combat Communications Group, and 267" Communications Squadron will remain in place at Otis, with 104" Fighter Wing at Barnes providing administrative support as the parent wing. An air sovereignty alert (ASA) facility will be constructed at Barnes Municipal Airport Air Guard Station, MA.' Firefighter positions from Otis will move to Barnes Municipal Airport Air Guard Station, MA. If the Commonwealth of Massachusetts decides to change the organization, composition and location of the 102~Fighter Wing (ANG) to integrate the unit into the Future Total Force, all other personnel allotted to the 102~Fighter Wing (ANG) will remain in place and assume a mission relevant to the security interests of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and consistent with the integration of the unit into the Future Total Force, including but not limited to air mobility, C4ISR, Information Operations, engineering, flight training or unmanned aerial vehicles. Where appropriate, unit personnel will be retrained in skills relevant to the emerging mission. This recommendation does not effect a change to the authorized end-strength of the Massachusetts Air National Guard. The distribution of aircraft currently assigned to the 102*Fighter Wing (ANG) is based upon a resource-constrained determination by the Department of Defense that the aircraft concerned will better support national security requirements in other locations and is not conditioned upon the agreement of the commonwealth.

US Air Force Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Sustainment, Modernization
U.S. Air Force Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Sustainment, Modernization, and Recapitalization: Background and Issues for Congress -name redacted- US Air Force Fellow June 24, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R44103 U.S. Air Force ICBM Sustainment, Modernization, and Recapitalization Summary Determining the future role of U.S. nuclear weapons within the U.S. national security strategy is currently a topic of much debate. Many senior leaders are determined to design a strategy that defines a new role for U.S. nuclear weapons and makes those weapons responsive and relevant in today’s global threat environment. The current U.S. nuclear enterprise consists of a triad of options: Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs), Submarine Launched Ballistic Missiles (SLBMs), and long-range bombers. All three legs of the nuclear triad are aging, since they were largely built to counter the threat of the Soviet Union. Policymakers in Congress and the Executive Branch are now deciding whether to modernize or replace parts of each leg. The Obama Administration’s 2010 Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) outlines its approach to reducing nuclear dangers and pursuing the goal of a world without nuclear weapons, while simultaneously advancing broader U.S. security interests. In his April 2009 speech in Prague, President Obama highlighted the current nuclear dangers in the global environment and declared the United States will “seek the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons.” The Nuclear Posture Review provides the roadmap for implementing President Obama’s agenda for reducing nuclear risks to the United States, U.S. allies and partners, and the international community.

These recommendations nuclear enterprise. These reviews stemmed from DOD’s 2014 internal and independent nuclear enterprise reviews, made recommendations to address a U.S. Strategic Command 2014 memorandum, and an internal DOD 2015 report problems with leadership, on nuclear command, control, and communications (NC3). Since GAO last organization, investment, morale, reported—in November 2018—an additional five of the 247 sub- policy, and procedures, as well as recommendations from the 2014 reviews have been closed; 91 remain open. In other shortcomings that adversely that time, DOD has also closed two more of the 13 recommendations from the affected the nuclear deterrence 2015 review; six remain open. However, the key tracking tools DOD uses to mission. In 2015, DOD conducted a provide visibility on the status of the recommendations do not provide current and review focused on NC3 systems, which resulted in additional complete information. For example, for those items that are behind schedule, recommendations to improve NC3. many of the expected completion dates have not been updated to reflect when the items are now expected to be completed.

MACDILL THUNDERBOLT u Thursday, January 24, 2019 u WWW.MACDILLTHUNDERBOLT.COM u 1 COMMENTARY Continuing the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by Airman 1st Class Caleb Nunez 6th Air Mobility Wing Public Affairs “I have a dream…” When Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke these famous words to that crowd of over 250,000 civil rights supporters from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1963, he delivered a speech that has captivated generations since with its vision of racial equality. As the third Monday of January approaches and we take a day to recognize and honor Dr. King and his philosophies, we must remember his dream of existing in a diverse society where the benefits of equality are enjoyed by all, re- gardless of race or circumstance. As I reflect upon this, I question myself: “Why does this speech continue to resonate almost 60 years later?” For me, it is because it captures the spirit of hope, even during difficult times, which remains as relevant as ever. From national security concerns to winning the fight, the challenges we face today as a coun- try are significant and the consequences of fail- ure are dangerous.

Also, one of my most enjoyable activities at these changes of command is talking to the young squadron members in the squadron lounge and swapping stories. As mentioned in the last Invader, the board agreed to postpone the reunion to Spring 2022. Bob Parks thinks the early-mid April time frame would be best weatherwise, and before conficts with school graduations. We want to be able to attend a basic training graduation at Lackland AFB and those are held every third week. San Antonio’s “Fiesta Days” when hotel rates would spike, are usually held in April, so Bob needs to get frm dates on those events before frming up and recommending a reunion date to the board. We are still hopeful that a B-2 fy over can be arranged for the BMT graduation with our Bob Koehne association being recognized in the bleachers. Welcome to our 2021 Spring Invader. I know it’s I would like to note the recent passing of two running somewhat late, but I had asked Don to hold association members. Don Kassen was remembered off because of the pending 13th Bomb Squadron in our Winter Invader issue. Don and his wife Betty change of command at Whiteman AFB on May 21st. were regular attendees at our reunions for years, and Bob Parks and Charlie Breitzke, joined Carole and I to Don usually handcrafted very nice wooden gifts represent our association at the ceremony.
