VANDENBERG SPACE FORCE BASE, Calif. (KEYT) - Vandenberg Space Force Base located here on the Central Coast is mourning the loss of one of its own, 23-year-old Airman 1st Class Cedric Eneluna.
The base says Eneluna passed away on Thursday, July 16th on base when the heavy equipment Eneluna was operating rolled down an embankment. The base says no one else injured, and provided no more details – explaining they are waiting further evaluation by Santa Barbara Coroner’s office and completion of the investigation.
“Our Vandenberg family is grieving alongside Cedric’s loved ones and his teammates,” said U.S. Space Force Col. James T. Horne III, commander of Space Launch Delta 30 and Vandenberg Space Force Base. “He made a lasting impression on his teammates through his character, dedication, and genuine care for others. On behalf of Team Vandenberg, I extend my deepest condolences to Cedric’s family, friends, and fellow Airmen during this incredibly difficult time.”
A Philippines native, Eneluna completed his first duty assignment at Vandenberg on August 2, 2024, and was a member of the 30th Civil Engineer Squadron’s Pavements and Equipment Flight. These Airmen perform critical tasks that support "Vandenberg’s launch, test, and range operations."
“He brought out the best in everyone,” said U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Seth Poulsen, 30th CES commander. “He was always ready to work, always willing to help, and always had a positive attitude. He truly represented what it means to be an Airman.”
Remembered as one of the "Dirt Boyz," Eneluna was known as someone who served with professionalism, humility, commitment.
