Monthly Observance

March is Women’s History Month: inspired by the selfless acts of those Americans that dedicate their lives to serve our country in the effort to make America a great place in the global community. As the US Air Force celebrates its 75th Birthday this year (1947-2022), we also celebrate the many contributions and sacrifices by both women and men of the United States Air Force. At Air University Press, we honor those women who have and are playing a vital role in our Nation’s history. Come see our selection of books at the AUP Book Store.
