CAFB hub partners with Keesler

COLUMBUS AFB, Miss. - The Columbus Air Force Base’s Spark Cell program and laboratory is designed to be a creative hub for innovative minds to cultivate ideas. CAFB is now partnering with the 333rd Training Squadron at Keesler AFB, Miss., to create new processes and contribute different concepts. Maj. Eddy Gutierrez, 14th Communications Squadron commander, reached out to Keesler to see if any transitional lieutenants would be interested in partnering with CAFB to drive some solutions that could benefit each base and potentially the Air and Education Training Command and Air Force. “Collaboration and innovation go hand-in-hand,” said 2nd Lt. Joshua Hullings, a student of the 333rd TRS Undergraduate Cyberspace Officer Training course. Currently, the lieutenants are helping program a flight scheduling application to aid instructor-pilot scheduling teams at the 37th and 41st Flying Training Squadrons at CAFB.
