Donna Attends Schriever Wall of Honor Ceremony at

Los Angeles Air Force Base

As a member of the Honorary Commanders program, I was honored to attend the Schriever Wall of Ceremony this past Friday at Space Systems Command, Los Angeles Air Force Base. Brigadier General D. Jason Cothern and Major General (Ret.) Thomas D. Taverney welcomed me and provided remarks during the ceremony.


In 2007, the Air Force Association’s Schriever Chapter 147, with support from industry partners, sponsored and commissioned the Statue of General Bernard A. Schriever. In November 2007, the Space & Missile Systems Center (SMC) dedicated the Statue and Wall as the General Schriever Memorial. The 60th SMC anniversary in 2014 was chosen as the initial occasion to recognize some of the earliest pioneers who have made tremendous contributions to our community by adding their names to the Schriever Wall of Honor.
