News and Events: May 2022

Monthly Observance

May is Military Appreciation Month: a time to recognize military service members who are still serving or who have already served. We celebrate the successes of those still with us and remember those who have passed. 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.
