The Southeastern Louisiana University Office of Military and Veteran Success invites the local community to join them on Veterans Day, Nov. 11, for the Centennial Military Banquet. Scheduled in the War Memorial Student Union Ballroom, located at 303 Union Ave., the event will begin at 6 p.m.

Director of Military and Veteran Success Emily Anthony said the event will showcase 100 years of military history at Southeastern and highlight the many achievements of alumni, current students, staff, and faculty members who have served in the military.

“The banquet will feature live music, delicious food, a silent auction to benefit the Military and Veteran Success Endowed Scholarship Fund, and historical artifacts on display,” Anthony said. “The Keynote Speaker is Brigadier General Amy Bumgarner, USAF, who currently serves as the Commander of the Air Force Office of Special Investigations.
