AFPAAA is a non-profit, veterans organization of past and present U.S.
Air Force Band, Broadcasting, Visual Information/Combat Camera, and
Information/Public Affairs professionals.
If that describes you, please
Join Us.
We are committed to preserving the heritage and professionalism of the
Public Affairs community, helping members transition into new jobs,
and maintaining contact with friends and co-workers. We are more a
fraternity than an association; a fraternity of over 500 men and women
whose generations were defined by the conflicts they were involved in
and the deployments they were sent on - World War II, Korea, the Cold
War, Vietnam, Bosnia, Iraq, Afghanistan, and many other places around
the globe - yet sharing a singular common experience.
A tax-exempt veterans organization under section 501(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code, AFPAAA was first incorporated in Virginia in
late 1993.
If you are now, or ever were, a member of the Public Affairs family,
AFPAAA is here for you.

AFPAAA's Board of Directors has announced that the next Annual Meeting
will be held September 29 to October 1, 2022.
Covid-19 uncertainties were the Board's overriding concern. “It was
the best decision our board could make for all involved – our members,
Air Force Material Command, the AF Museum, and the hotel,” said AFPAAA
chairman and meeting coordinator Perry Nouis.
“Rescheduling to allow sufficient time for most people to be
vaccinated and for things to return to as normal as possible across
the country was the way to go,” he said.
More details about the scheduling decision are available in the
April News and Notes cover story and Perry's "From the President's
Pen" letter.
While it will still be a while before you'll be able to see your
friends in Dayton, you can reminisce a bit by checking out some photos
from our last two annual meetings...

You can also whet your appetite for the Air Force Museum by watching
the Emmy® winning documentary "Memphis Belle: Her Final Mission."
It highlights the restoration team at the museum and provides an
in-depth look at the work they put into restoring the Memphis
Belle™...
