4th Annual Military Induction Ceremony

I partnered with the Glendale Chamber of Commerce Military & Veterans Affairs Committee to host this event. Officials from the U.S. Armed Forces and community organizations salute the decision made by local high school students to enlistment in the military. Recruits are honored with a ceremonial stole, presented their first challenge coin, and receive a Certificate of Appreciation from my office. The ceremony also includes the ceremonial administering of military oath and a musical tribute. The keynote address is given by Robin Rand, a retired United States Air Force four-star general and former commander of Luke Air Force Base. Rick DeBruhl, former 12News TV reporter and anchor and currently one of the TV voices of the Barrett Jackson collector car auctions, is the master of ceremonies.
