24 September 2011, Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel A gala celebrating 40 years of collaborative partnership serving our nation and her allies featuring Lt. Col. Jim Reynolds as the Master of Ceremonies and hosted the ADF Commander Col. (now Brig. Gen.) Ron Huntley. Following the posting of the nation’s colors by the ADF-C Joint Services Color Guard, the Arapahoe High School Singers, under the direction of Kelly Parmenter, sang the National Anthems of Allied Countries attending the ceremonies. It would be a rare find to locate a group of singers who could perform any better than this group! A very special event during this Gala celebration was the presence of an American Bald Eagle during the singing of the National Anthem, seen at 6 minutes 20 seconds into the video. The occasion was highlighted with honoring four Hughes/GM/Raytheon employees for their lengthy and honorable service at the ADF, followed by messages from various agency directors and leaders.
