Schriever Reserve unit celebrates 10 years in space

The 19th Space Operations Squadron marked a milestone in their history during a celebration Feb. 4 at the Cheyenne Mountain Resort.

Nineteen SOPS, the Reserve associate unit to the 2nd Space Operations Squadron assigned to Schriever, is the 310th Space Wing’s first space squadron and it celebrated its 10th anniversary in a military ceremony that included not only the current members of the squadron, but past members and commanders and plank holders of the unit.

“It meant a lot to see the past commanders and plank holders (at this event),” said Maj. Jason King, the 19 SOPS assistant director of operations. “It was neat to see all of that history. To see these people come back and be a part of this was pretty awesome.”
