This year we were pleased to have as our very special Keynote presenter and one of the nations most sought after speakers,  retired, U.S. Army Ranger, Colonel Danny McKnight.

If you've seen the epic movie or read the book, "Blackhawk Down" you know you won't want to miss this riveting presentation and hear the real life story of what happened that day on the streets of Mogadishu, Somalia when our troops took on a group of thugs armed by an unknown and shadowy middle eastern man later to become known to all as Osama Bin Laden.

You heard first hand how 123 elite U.S. Army Rangers and Delta Force troops faced off against over 1,000 members of a brutal warlord's gang of thugs armed with AK-47's, RPG's, Machine Guns and more, for the battle of their life.  You'll learn why our troops risked and gave their lives to bring home the bodies of their fallen troops and Blackhawk Helo pilots and how  such a small group of our brave troops withstood the force of many. Prepare yourself for one of the most powerful presentations you'll ever here that is sure to make you even prouder to be an American and give thanks to those who serve it so well while appreciating even more what we do as volunteers!
