Col. Rory Welch, 45th Space Wing vice commander, signs the proclamation recognizing October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month, while Command Chief Master Sgt. Calvin Williams looks on. Domestic Violence is a cycle of behavior used to gain control, power, and intimidation over a spouse or intimate partner. It has no barriers; both men and women can be the abusers or the victims of domestic violence. (U.S. Air Force photo/Matthew Jurgens)
