The 94th Civil Engineer Squadron was recognized for its effort to make the Dobbins POW/MIA Memorial Park a place of somber remembrance for base servicemembers and visitors.

The park and what it represents is important to many people and vividly carries on a strong tradition at Dobbins where we remember our POWs and MIAs.

The park and its events are meant to instill pride for POWs and their families, bring together families of those missing in action, and to inspire community groups to join in its decoration.

Going back 24 years, the grounds have hosted POWs and heard their stories of imprisonment and will continue host gatherings that highlight the service of POWs and the plight of MIA families. The stories told by POWs help recognize their contributions and thank them for their sacrifices

Pictured at the left is 94th Airlift Wing Commander, Col. Heath Nucholls and Col. Stephen West as they unveil the new monument. Col. West was the 94th CES commander when the park was brought to life, designed, and construction started.
