Panel to Examine On-the-Ground Perspectives

When discussing space policy and how it supports combatant operations, a critical voice is that of the troops receiving the support.

The Enlisted/Officer Space Operator Perspective panel will provide insight into what is happening in the theater, what is needed, and what space professionals can do to help.

Led by Brig. Gen. Michael J. Carey, USAF, deputy director, Global Operations, Global Operations Directorate, USSTRATCOM, the panel will comprise officers and senior enlisted members of the Services, including:

  • Col. John "J.R." Riordan, USAF, director of Space Operations
  • Col. William J. Spendley, USAF, Special Ops Command
  • First Sergeant Dustin Swinney, USA, 2nd Space Company
  • The panel is part of Nov. 4 agenda for the Strategic Space Symposium, which will be held Nov. 2-4, at the Qwest Center Omaha, in Omaha, Neb. For more details on the agenda, click here.
