Active duty, retired and veteran pioneers from across the ICBM community met at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyo., Oct. 7 for a three-day 50th anniversary of the ICBM commemoration.
The ceremonies included a Guardian Sword event, a brainstorming session on how to make the strategic-deterrent mission more efficient; a "Curtain Raiser" reception; a four-part symposium; a commemoration dinner; a technology exposition; a memorial service; and a painting dedication.
Attendees included Secretary of the Air Force Michael Donley; Gen. Kevin Chilton, U.S. Strategic Command commander; Gen. C. Robert Kehler, Air Force Space Command commander; and Lt. Gen. Frank Klotz, Air Force Global Strike Command commander.
America's ICBM force is deployed across almost 35,000 square miles of the Great Plains. The missiles are operated, secured, maintained and sustained every minute of the day by almost 10,000 dedicated Airmen.

This show is built from a fascination with glazes and ceramic materials. During my residency at the Ceramics Program - Office for the Arts at Harvard, I’ve been researching and testing materials and procedures to take a fresh look at how we approach contemporary clay.
The process that I developed for this work has me hand-printing vessels and balloons the time to produce a single vase out to 40-plus hours. In that time-frame, I make thousands of decisions about where the profile is heading. Each drop is a waypoint in the design of the object. There is no inside surface vs. outside surface, there is only the object and the space it contains. It’s a really beautiful process. It’s layered with the irony of an American studio artist hand-replicating a 3-d printing process; making work representative of blue and white ware. There’s a lot of good questions in there.Colby Charpentier
Knowing that the material itself is a glass that was formulated to devitrify and be ceramic when fired— is important to understanding this work as a veil of glaze. This process is driven by the research questions: What if we took clay out of the vessel and glaze was all that remained? And what does it mean to replicate a 3-D printing process by hand? The result is ceramic: glass, devitrified.
