Birdies for the Brave

Nov. 5, 2010 -- Members of the 165th Airlift Wing helped out the PGA of America and the TPC Sawgrass in their annual “Birdies for the Brave” golf tournament fundraiser for military charities. The last couple of years, the event has invited the unit to provide an Honor Guard detail, vocalist and chaplain to help celebrate the event.

 

The November 2010 tournament included the unit taking second place. In addition, PGA golfer and winner of the 2009 British Open, Stewart Cink, provided a golf lesson to the tournament participants.

 

165th AW Public Affairs Officer Lt. Col. David Simons presented Mr. Cink with a Wing coin. Capt Brannon Bowman, 165th AW Chaplain provided the invocation for the event.
