Whiting, Space Operations Command commander, at the morale Polar Lounge after being recognized for her superior performance while at Thule Air Base, Greenland, Dec. 17, 2021. Gen. Whiting and the SpOC command team traveled to Thule to visit various locations throughout the base to better understand the current challenges Airmen and Guardians are facing in terms of mission and quality of life. Thule is the Department of Defense’s northernmost installation located 750 miles north of the Arctic Circle and only 947 miles south of the North Pole which brings significant challenges such as significant internet degradation, seasonal depression issues, and more.
