About our Guest Speaker: Our 2024 Guest Speaker CW5 (RET) Douglas Englen has flown over 7000 hours, executed 34 combat tours, and completed over 2,500 combat missions. His position as flight lead on the 2011 Bin Laden raid earned him his second Silver Star and makes him one of the most decorated aviators of the Global War on Terror Generation.
