50th Armed Forces Recognition Luncheon

Join the Aurora Chamber of Commerce's Buckley Regional Military Affairs Council (BRMAC) for the 50th Annual Armed Forces Recognition Luncheon, a milestone celebration honoring junior enlisted military personnel across the active, guard, reserve, and Commonwealth forces who have demonstrated excellence in service and meaningful contributions to the local community.

This landmark program highlights those who go above and beyond — not only in their military duties but through volunteerism, leadership, and engagement that positively impacts the lives of others outside the uniform.

We are honored to welcome Major General Devin R. Pepper, United States Space Force, Deputy Chief of Staff for Strategic Plans and Policy at NATO's Supreme Allied Command Transformation, as our keynote speaker. A career space and missile operations officer, General Pepper previously commanded the 460th Space Wing and Buckley Garrison right here in the Greater Buckley Region.

Celebrate with us as we honor the best of our local service members — those who embody leadership, community spirit, and dedication in every aspect of their lives.
