Gen. Glen VanHerck, Commander, North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command, discusses how the roles of the radar monitors (from left to right) 2nd Lt. Brian Rowbotham, Capt. Lee Dockery, and Tech. Sgt. Kevin Jewitt, fit into the big picture of Homeland Defense while touring the Upgraded Early Warning Radar on Clear Space Force Station, Alaska, May 4, 2022. The leadership team traveled to Clear SFS to meet with leaders and tour the UEWR and Long Range Discrimination Radar under the purview of Clear SFS. Clear SFS has been a vital part of the integral deterrence in support of NORAD’s mission of Homeland Defense since the U. S. Air Force set up Ballistic Missile Early Warning Systems and became fully operational in November of 1961. (Department of Defense photo by Chuck Marsh)
