Chapter Anniversary Celebration Marks 70 Years
In June, the chapter marked the 70th anniversary of its formation back in 1954, with a formal dinner held in the Founders' Dining Hall at Royal Holloway, University of London.
Many VIP Guests including past chapter presidents and seniors from defense, government and academia were among approximately 200 people who attended. The dinner was hosted by Air Cdre Mike Wilson, RAF, chapter president, and a very fitting after-dinner speech was given by Maj. Gen. Bill Robins, British Army (Ret.).
Maj. Gen. Erich Staudacher, GEAF (Ret.), general manager of AFCEA Europe, delivered a message of congratulations and a certificate of recognition on behalf of Lt. Gen. Susan Lawrence, USA (Ret.), CEO and president of AFCEA International.
Gen. Staudacher also presented Air Cdre (now AVM) Tom Ashbridge, RAF, immediate past president, with his Chairman's Superior Service Award from AFCEA International.
