The Friends offers a special opportunity for those who wish to honor individuals, organizations, or groups of individuals. For a donation of $50 or more, a handsome certificate will be placed in The Friends of the Air Force Academy Honor Book. The Honor Books are displayed in a prominent location on a handcrafted podium in the Clark Special Collections of the McDermott Library where they are readily accessible to cadets, faculty, and staff, as well as to visitors by special arrangement.
This is an ideal way to give special, permanent recognition to a classmate, fellow crewmembers, a friend, a family member, a team, or an organization of special importance to you. The honored need not be military or deceased to be commemorated with an Honor Book Certificate. To date, more than 1,200 individuals, units, and organizations have been commemorated (see the Honor Book Index below). Honorees include participants in virtually every American conflict as well as members of our community and the public, Academy faculty and staff spouses, USAFA cadets and graduates, personnel from other services, and family members and friends. Copies of the Honor Book Certificates can be viewed below.
Please consider participating in our Commemorative Program by completing and submitting the Honor Book Application below. Your donation and application may either be submitted as a hard copy or electronically. See the Honor Book Application below for details.
