Starting the 'Challenge'
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- The pilot of a UH-1N Huey helicopter maneuvers his aircraft through an obstacle course here May 4 while being guided by the onboard flight engineer. The helicopter team from the 40th Helicopter Flight at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Mont., is competing in Guardian Challenge, the world's annual premier space and missile competition. The four-day event tests the wartime readiness of Air Force Space Command's Airmen in spacelift, ICBM operations, communications, maintenance, helicopter operations, security forces and food preparation.
