A Hui Hou to Lt. Col. Jack Murphy

In Hawaiian, "until we meet again" is often expressed as "A hui hou." In August, the chapter honored Lt. Col. Jack Murphy, USAF (Ret.), at its monthly luncheon before his relocation to the Mainland. Murphy has been a member of AFCEA since 1992-that's 33 years and counting. He has served in many volunteer roles with the chapter to include vice president for awards, chairman of the AFCEA scholarship selection and awards committee, co-chairman of the TechNet Asia-Pacific (TNAP) 2015-2017 panel moderator and member selection committee, a volunteer judge for the state of Hawaii Science Fair and a member of the AFCEA Hawaii board of directors as treasurer and later, board advisor.

As a part of the chapter's leadership team, Murphy's active participation has helped to continue AFCEA Hawaii's success.

Murphy has been recognized as a multiple winner of the AFCEA Hawaii Executive of the Month and AFCEAN of the Month awards over the years. Most recently, he was the 2017 recipient of AFCEA International's Leadership Award.

Murphy has been a quiet and effective leader, preferring to work without fanfare and always making sure that the chapter carried out its mission of giving back to the membership and to the community. A hui hou, Jack! Hope to see you on our VTCs.
