Vandenberg's First Patching Ceremony

U.S. Space Force Lt. Col. Darin Lister, 2nd Range Operations commander, places the first USSF patch of 2024 on the wall during a patching ceremony for USSF-62 at Vandenberg Space Force Base, Calif., April 11, 2024. The low-earth orbit space vehicle is capable of sensing, storing, and transmitting microwave raw sensor data to enable derivation of ocean surface vector wind, tropical cyclone intensity, snow depth, soil moisture and sea ice characterization, supporting joint military operations and mission planning across the globe.
