PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. --  The 21st Operations Support Squadron and three team members from the 21st Operations Group were recognized April 21 with the Gen. Lance W. Lord Superior Space Operational Leadership Awards for their outstanding work.

General Lord, who was commander of Air Force Space Command and retired in 2006, was on hand to present the awards, which were established in 2007 to recognize an outstanding unit, company grade officer, enlisted member and civil service employee assigned to the 21st OG.

A donation was also made to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure in honor of General Lord's wife, Beccy, who is a breast cancer survivor.
