Kevin Kirsch, Cyberspace Capabilities Center commander, pause for a photo with USAF Military Auxiliary Radio System members during the AFMARS 75th anniversary event held at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, Nov. 6, 2023. MARS is a network of volunteer amateur radio operators, who apply their skills and equipment to provide auxiliary communication support to the military and other government agencies. These volunteers, often referred to as “MARS members,” come from diverse backgrounds, including active-duty military personnel, veterans, and civilian amateur radio enthusiasts. They dedicate their time and resources to ensure that MARS remains a viable and effective communication tool for the DoD. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Melanie A. Bulow-Gonterman)
