Guardians and airmen stationed at Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado have been without an on-base dining hall facility for months after it was closed this summer due to a safety issue, according to an internal memo.
The Aragon Dining Facility, located on the Colorado Springs base, has been closed since July. An internal memo , marked as Controlled Unclassified Information — documents that aren’t classified but are still out of public view — was posted on the 21st Force Support Squadron’s website and detailed the closure.
“On 2 July 2024, the Aragon Dining Facility experienced a significant safety incident,” the memo read. “Due to the nature of the incident, it has been determined necessary to close the facility temporarily to ensure the safety and well-being of all personnel and patrons.”

The dining hall will remain closed “until further notice,” the memo added. A spokesperson for Space Base Delta 1 detailed the dining hall, or DFAC, closed “due to facility infrastructure conditions” but did not provide any specific details.
