A formation of Airmen renders the first salute to Maj. Gen. Anthony J. Cotton, as Cotton takes command of the 20th Air Force, which is responsible for the nation's three Intercontinental Ballistic Missile wings and one nuclear operations support wing, during a change of command ceremony at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Nov. 16, 2015. Cotton also assumed command of Task Force 214, which reports to U.S. Strategic Command. TF 214 provides the President of the United States with responsive and highly reliable strategic missile forces, and supports USSTRATCOM's strategic deterrence mission. USSTRATCOM, one of nine DoD unified combatant commands, relies on various task forces for the execution of its global missions, which also include space operations; cyberspace operations; joint electronic warfare; global strike; missile defense; intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance; combating weapons of mass destruction; and analysis and targeting.
