820^th BASE DEFENSE GROUP MEMORIAL
MOODY AIR FORCE BASE, GEORGIA

I am very proud to announce that your Board of Directors voted unanimously to plan, design and fund a Safeside Bench at the 820^th Base Defense Group, Moody AFB, GA. The bench will represent all elements of the 1041 SPS (T), the 82CSPW and the 820 BDG, 820^th COS, 822^nd BDS, 823^rd BDS, 824^th BDS and 105^th BDS. It will be built on the grounds of the current 820^th BDG Memorial.

The bench will be identical to the Safeside Memorial Bench, at The Museum of the United States Air Force, Wright-Patterson AFB, OH, as shown in these photos.

This endeavor will cost the Association approximately $5,000. We solicit your help to build this lasting monument to all our service in the defense of our country. You may donate by clicking on the “Donate” button below, which will link to Pay Pal. You do not have to have a Pay Pal account to donate. The Pay Pal link will accept your credit card or debit your bank account.

You may also donate by check. Send checks to our Treasurer, Ray Silhavy, 2834 Red Maple Drive, Katy, TX 77494. Make your check payable to Operation Safeside, Inc. Annotate the memo section with "Safeside Bench Donation."

With your help, we hope to complete construction of our bench later this year or in early 2022. We will dedicate the bench at Safeside Reunion in the Spring of 2022.
