Vikings cheerleaders visit Detachment 2

DIEGO GARCIA, Indian Ocean — Site contractor Mike Runkle (center) gives the Minnesota Vikings cheerleaders an educational orientation of the 21st Operations Group Detachment 2 site at Diego Garcia Jan. 2. The cheerleaders learned about the Det. 2 Ground-based Electro Optical Deep Space Surveillance mission to detect, track and identify space objects. Det. 2, located in the Indian Ocean, is one of the 21st Space Wing’s geographically separated units conducting precise and disciplined missile warning, missile defense and space control operations. The trip was sponsored by the Morale, Welfare and Recreation and sends entertainers around the globe to support deployed servicemembers overseas. (U.S. Air Force photo/Bruce Chatfield)
