AFA Nominees for 2008-2009

The Nominating Committee met in Dallas, TX, on April 18, 2008, and selected a slate of candidates for the five national officer positions and three elective positions on the Board of Directors. The Committee consists of the three most recent past Chairmen of the Board, one representative selected by each of the Vice Chairmen of the Board (Aerospace Education and Field Operations), two representatives from the Central geographic area, one representative from each of the regions in the West and East geographic areas and one person representing each of the following constituencies – Total Air Force, Air Force veterans and aerospace industry. The slate will be presented to the delegates at the National Convention in Washington D.C. in September.
