Association of Air Force Missileers "Victors in the Cold War" ICBM Heritage Day - AAFM, along with the Lance Sijan AFA chapter and AFSPC, sponsor the day long event attended by AFSPC missile staffers and contractors, and include briefings on the future of ICBMs, proprietary contractor sessions and a number of briefings on specific ICBM programs. This annual event has proved to be an excellent vehicle to keep the young men and women involved in ICBM programs current on the history of missile development. The fifth annual day was at Peterson AFB in July 2006. AAFM Eighth National Meeting - We will meet 9-13 October 2008 at the Hyatt Dulles Hotel near Dulles Airport in the Washington, DC area. We have an excellent hotel rate and will tour military related and historic sites in the area. Registration forms will be available in the September 2007 and later newsletters and can be downloaded HERE. Our schedule:
Local Area Meetings - Local area meetings are held periodically at locations around the country - if you are interested in helping host one of these AAFM gatherings in your area, let us know. Unit Reunions - The number of missile units that are conducting reunions is growing. We encourage these meetings, publicize the dates in our newsletter and in this home page and provide lists of members who have served in the organizations that conduct them. We also encourage involvement with the World War II units that were the forerunners of our missile units. Several missile unit reunions have been held in conjunction with the AAFM National Meetings. If your unit wants to host a reunion combined with our next meeting, let AAFM know - we arrange all the events, rooms and facilities and you get together with missileers from all backgrounds. We had three Atlas units with us in Cheyenne in 2006. For an update and information on upcoming reunions and meetings, please click HERE |
