Senior Chief Adrian Rowe (left), the Strategic Weapons System master chief for pre-commissioning unit (PCU) District of Columbia, and Petty Officer 1st Class Austin Baker (right), the missile division lead petty officer for PCU District of Columbia, participate in a tour of a Boeing KC-46A Pegasus led by the 660th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron at Travis Air Force Base in Fairfield, Calif., between May 18-22, 2026.
The tour was part of Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) Reverse SWS Week between May 18-22.
PAE SSP’s Reverse SWS Weeks are educational training opportunities modeled after the regularly occurring SWS Weeks at submarine bases on the East and West Coasts. SWS Weeks bring ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) and guided missile submarine (SSGN) crews, Navy support commands, and industry partners together to share new updates to the weapons system, troubleshoot issues, and forecast upcoming needs for the submarine fleet. Reverse SWS Weeks go a step further by bringing crew members out to PAE SSP’s program management offices (PMO) and detachments – dispersed throughout the nation – providing an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the weapons system they maintain and operate while on strategic patrol.
