Colonel Susan Meyers, the Commanding Officer of the 821st Space Base Group, which overseeing Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, has been removed from command for “loss of confidence in her ability to lead” spurred by a base-wide email she sent on March 31st, days after a visit to the base by Vice-President JD Vance, in which she attempted to distance herself from several controversial statements made by the Vice-President.
In the email, Colonel Meyers appeared to push back against several statements made during the visit by Vice-President Vance critical of Denmark and Greenland, stating, “I spent the weekend thinking about Friday's visit -- the actions taken, the words spoken, and how it must have affected each of you. I do not presume to understand current politics, but what I do know is the concerns of the U.S. administration discussed by Vice-President Vance on Friday are not reflective of Pituffik Space Base.” Adding, “I commit that, for as long as I am lucky enough to lead this base, all of our flags will fly proudly -- together,” in an apparent attempt towards unity for the thousands of Danes, Greenlanders, Americans who work at Pituffik.
