The legacy of Space: A SpOC veteran highlight

Soldiers operate the small lightweight GPS receiver (SLGR) during Operation Desert Storm in 1991. The receiver, which facilitated GPS navigation in the open desert, along with other space-based capabilities such as missile warning, space-based imagery and satellite communications played a major role in enabling the success of U.S. and coalition forces during 100 hours of sustained combat.
