Space Cover of the Week, Week 701 (May 14, 2023)

Space Cover 701: Brigadier General Aldrin

The USAF Space Systems Command hosted a ceremony honoring astronaut and fighter pilot Colonel Buzz Aldrin's honorary appointment to Brigadier General.

Lt. Gen. Michael A. Guetlein, Space Systems Command commander, promoted retired U.S. Air Force Col. Buzz Aldrin to the Honorary Appointment of Brigadier General on May 5, 2023 at Los Angeles Air Force Base in El Segundo, California.

This is a topic for this ceremony in the Space Explorers & Workers forum with Space Systems Command releases and photos/video along with photos from "MOL" who was able to attend the event in person!

The image above is a cover received from the Los Angles AFB post office for the event with a pictorial flag cancel. Not sure how they selected the "exact time" of 1:40 p.m. in the cancel.

All times are CT (US)
