AFA Gabriel Chapter Quarterly Luncheon: Feb 23
We are extremely pleased to have as our keynote speaker, BRIGADIER (ret.) GENERAL BERNARD K. SKOCH, CyberPatriot Commissioner of The Air Force Association. The number one threat today is to Cyber Security and the US needs to inspire youth to prepare themselves academically to counter this and future technical threats. Cyber Patriot is creating an awareness among High School students of the threat. This competition inspires them to pursue careers in Science, technology, engineering and math STEM and convinces so many of them that STEM careers are both enjoyable and within their reach.
