307th BW showcases mission capabilities

Ms. Jessica Deevers, surveillance control officer, 45th Space Wing, explains her duties in reference to surveillance control for boats and aircraft in the area prior to launch of a space shuttle for a group of civic leaders during their visit to the Morrell Operations Center at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, March 31, 2011. The center was recently renamed the Morrell Operations Center in honor of the late Maj. Gen. Jimmey R. Morrell, who was the first commander of the 45th Space Wing. The civic leaders were part of the 307th Bomb Wing Civic Leader Tour to Patrick Air Force Base, Fla. The 307th BW from Barksdale Air Force Base, La., showcased its mission capabilities over a four-day period for local civic leaders as well as the employers and clergy of some the bomb wing’s Airmen during three back-to-back community support events March 30 – April 2, 2011. Civic leaders witnessed the refueling of A-10 Thunderbolts during their flight to Patrick AFB. Once they arrived, they received briefings about the 920th Rescue Wing, 45th Space Wing, and the 301st Rescue Squadron. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Jeff Walston)
