Air Force Global Strike Command Public Affairs
4/19/2013 - BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE, La. -- Air Force Global Strike Command's 2013 Global Strike Challenge competition has been canceled due to budget shortfalls.
"We regret cancelling Global Strike Challenge this year but we're
committed to resuming in 2014," said Lt. Gen. James Kowalski, AFGSC
commander. "Global Strike sustains our culture of disciplined
professionalism by putting our best airmen through the demands of
high-visibility competition."
Global Strike Challenge recognizes the best of the best in the bomber,
Intercontinental Ballistic Missile and Security Forces communities that
are central to the AFGSC mission.
The goals of Global Strike Challenge are to:
· Showcase the world's premier bomber and ICBM force
· Foster esprit de corps through competition and teamwork
· Recognize outstanding global strike personnel and teams
· Improve combat capabilities through competition and community crosstalk
The competition also welcomes teams and weapon systems from other major commands.
The annual technology and innovation symposium held in conjunction with Global Strike Challenge has also been canceled.
