Awards
Each year the Kittyhawk Chapter recognizes a few, from among the many, outstanding members of the Kittyhawk Chapter for their excellent performance and contributions to our nation and the specialty of Electronic Combat.
You can honor one of your own peers for a suitable award to recognize his/her contributions to the national defense, electronic warfare advancements, business development, management, and other categories in support of Electronic Combat.
