"Global War on Terrorism - The Air Force
Responds"
The 2002 Air Force Association National Convention and Aerospace Technology
Exposition will highlight the contributions of Air Force people in the global
war on terrorism and the pivotal role of air and space power plays in defense of
the nation. It
will take place from September 15-18, 2002 at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel,
Washington, D.C. The National Convention brings together AFA grass-roots
leaders from around the country to discuss association policies for the coming year, and
the Aerospace Technology Exposition showcases the latest technology from across the
defense industry.
