The Penn State Alumni Association

What’s been happening:

We are planning on moving to Pensacola NAS, FL this summer as an initial cadre for the USAF Combat Systems Officer (CSO) training campus. The CSO schoolhouse at Randolph AFB, TX is moving there and is scheduled to begin training with new simulators and aircraft in spring 2011. We expect to have over 300 students and 100 instructors as well as over 100 contractors in the program, thereby allowing us to be the largest flying training squadron in the DoD. My oldest daughter will begin college this fall (location-TBD) and my youngest (adopted from China in 2002) is awaiting the arrival of her sister (who is also being adopted from China sometime later this year). We expect to retire from the USAF in the Florida panhandle sometime around the summer of 2013.
