DetailsGone But Not Forgotten
Honoring the memory of fallen comrades is a vital part of the AOG mission. We respectfully ask to be notified as soon as possible following the death of a graduate, cadet or air training officer so we can take appropriate and timely actions. The AOG has been informed of the following deaths within the past 90 days.
For best results when searching, use a last name (e.g., Smith), class year (e.g., 1959), or cadet squadron (e.g., CS-01). Please note that more complex searches may yield limited or no results.
