Chief Master Sgt. Richard Small, Air Force Space Command command chief greets Col. Wayne McGee, 460th Space Wing commander, on the Peterson Air Force Base, Colo., flightline. Guardian Challenge team members descended upon the southern Colorado base as the teams prepared for three days of events, including a golf tournament, space and missile forum and an awards and dinner banquet May 9. The Guardian Challenge competition pits the command's several space wings against each other to see whose the "best of the best" in areas of expertise, including security forces, communications, missile combat and satellite operations.
