The Honorary Commanders Association, a cooperative effort involving the Cobb Chamber, Dobbins Air Reserve Base (ARB), General Lucius D. Clay National Guard Center, and the Navy and Marine Corps, is now accepting nominations for its 2019 class.

The Honorary Commanders Association annually selects community and business leaders and pairs them with military personnel in a yearlong program designed to give leaders an opportunity to learn about military activities, their impact on the economy and the various aspects of the national defense system. Created by the Cobb Chamber in 1983, the association has grown over the years to include units of our nation’s Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps. Each program event covers a branch of service and includes a behind-the-scenes tour of local and regional military assets.

The deadline for nominations is Friday, July 13, 2018. Fill out a nomination form online at cobbchamber.org or email the nominee’s name, title, employer, mailing address, email address and business or mobile telephone number to Joel Blockton at jblockton@cobbchamber.org.
