The conference is part of the American Veterans Center’s Annual three day veteran’s conference.
Mag Instrument is being recognized for its commitment and on-going support of the U.S. military for the past four decades.
The annual conference is attended a number of the U.S. Armed Services leaders and high-ranking Washington D.C. officials, as well as some 400 military cadets and midshipmen and Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) high school students from throughout the country. The award presentation will be held prior to luncheon and Tony Maglica, Jr. will receive the award on behalf of his father and the company.
“It will be an honor to be amongst such dedicated Americans who work tirelessly for the freedoms we enjoy,” said Tony Maglica Jr. “Mag Instrument is committed to aiding our military troops and first responders with some of the finest lighting tools they use in ensuring our safety and liberty.
“These men and women are the lifeblood of the American way of life. We at Mag Instrument are grateful to be receiving this award but we are more honored to be able to help our troops in staying safe. We are indebted to each and every person in uniform.”
In addition to receiving the award at the NAC, Maglica, Jr. will also be participating in the Sat., Oct. 27 culmination of the three day conference at the American Valor dinner “A Salute to Our Heroes.” Maglica, Jr. will present an award to Commander Dean “Diz” Laird, the only ‘Ace’ pilot to have shot down both German and Japanese aircraft during WWII.
