Watch Air Force Materiel Command boss Gen. Arnold W. Bunch Jr., Air Force Reserve Chief Lt. Gen. Richard W. Scobee, Air National Guard Director Michael Loh, and Maj. Gen. John E. Shaw—head of the Space Force’s Space Operations Command who has since been nominated to be U.S. Space Command’s deputy commander—discuss how they fought through ongoing COVID-19 pandemic earlier this year. The panel discussion, part of the Air Force Association’s virtual Air, Space & Cyber Conference, was moderated by AFA Executive Vice President retired Maj. Gen. Douglas L. Raaberg.
