For nearly five years, #Guardians have been committed to securing our Nation's interests in, from, and to space.
.
.
Among them, U.S. Space Force Lt. Col. Derick Perry, U.S. Space Forces-Space financial management and programs division chief & amateur saxophonist.
.
“I chose the Space Force because space has always been an interest of mine. Earlier in my career, I started as a Global Positioning System (GPS) Systems Engineer for aircrafts, which sparked my interest to do space launch operations, space acquisitions, and space research & development (R&D).” #USSF5, #SpaceForce
