VANDENBERG SPACE FORCE BASE, Calif. -- Six Vandenberg Space Force Base honorary commanders visited Vandenberg SFB for a monthly mission insight tour designed to provide a deeper understanding of how the installation’s units support the Space Launch Delta 30 mission. During the visit, participants observed operations at a 30th Operations Support Squadron weather balloon station, where personnel collect atmospheric data used to support and ensure mission safety.
The group also observed a 30th Security Forces Squadron military working dog demonstration, highlighting the critical role 30 SFS plays in protecting personnel, resources, and mission-critical assets. These capabilities contribute to maintaining installation security and ensuring mission readiness across Vandenberg’s operations.
