Colorado Springs is home to the Air Force Academy which is the youngest of the U.S.
service academies. President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a congressional bill
establishing the Air Force Academy on April 1, 1954. With his signature, President
Eisenhower initiated a chain of events that, over the years, has produced one of the
leading military and academic institutions in the country. The Academy received two
special honors on April 1, 2004, when the U.S. Postal Service celebrated the Academy’s
50th anniversary with a commemorative 37-cent stamp.
Southern Colorado HOPE Chapter salutes all the men and women that have served in the
