    SSgt. Erick Vega, an avionics specialist, attempts to determine if his equipment was failing or if the space systems used by the F-16 were being attacked by simulated enemy forces during a Red Flag exercise in 2016. Airmen participate in the live, virtual, constructive portion at the CAOC during a Red Flag exercise at Nellis in 2015. Space forces first officially played in a Red Flag in 2011, with the first operational Blue cyber participation in 2013. In each year since, at least once during the four annual exercises, space and cyber warriors join the scrimmage along with the pilots, weapon systems operators, air battle managers, combat search and rescue crews, intelligence personnel, and maintainers employed in today’s modern air combat domain.

The enemy has jammed signals from the Global Posi­ tioning System (GPS), limiting unmanned aerial vehicle support and preci­ sion air strikes. Satellites are blinded by ground-based lasers, preventing ac­ Ationable intelligence on enemy maneuvers within denied areas and degrading threat warning capabilities. At home, cyber intrusion threatens America’s critical infra­ structure that supports satellite command and control (C2) and cripples in-theater satellite communications, putting deployed naval strike groups at risk. To compli­ cate matters further, news outlets report on the attacks with information that de­ fense officials know not to be true. Yet this misinformation sparks outrage from the American public and encourages hasty decisions by lawmakers. America is under attack, and all this happens without a single kinetic strike. These events describe a potential scenario in the next Great War. How could America get to this point? For years, we have achieved national objectives through military operations other than war. Such activities were focused on nonstate actors like Al-Qaeda, Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), and Al-Shabaab.

    COMMANDER’S CORNER: SIMPLE STEPS TO BEING MORE EFFECTIVE - PAGE 3 Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado Thursday, June 18, 2015 Vol. 59 No. 24 Guidon passed as 21st Space Wing changes command By Dave Smith 21st Space Wing Public Affairs staff writer PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colorado — Col. Douglas A. Schiess took command of the 21st Space Wing from Brig. Gen. John E. Shaw in a change of command ceremony June 12. Lt. Gen. John W. “Jay” Raymond, commander, 14th Air Force (Air Forces Strategic) and Joint Functional Component Command for Space, presided over the transfer of command, receiving the guidon from Shaw and passing it to Schiess. “Sir I assume command,” Schiess told Raymond. He set the tone for his command by quoting the sixth President of the United States John Quincy Adams. “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader,” he said. Schiess said he was glad to be back in Colorado Springs and ready to lead and serve in his new position. A mentor once told him the more you talk, the less time you have in command, and Schiess said the clock is ticking. “Getting an opportunity to command is very rare; getting to do it again is awesome. It’s a dream come true,” he said, referring to previ- ous assignments as commander of the 4th Space Operations Squadron at Schriever AFB, Colo. and 45th Operations Group at Cape Canaveral Air (U.S. Air Force photo by Craig Denton) Force Station, Fla.
