This month, we celebrated the grand opening of the new Honor Guard facility at Luke Air Force Base and what a moment it was! Standing room only, 10+ attendees, and so much heart in one room.
This project started with a simple observation from our Founder, Jeff Gordon, who noticed Honor Guard members training outside in the Arizona summer heat, operating out of a building with no air conditioning. From that moment on, IDM was committed to building them something better.
Years later, we got to watch Jeff cut the ribbon on a beautiful 8,000 SF facility built just for them! Complete with offices, locker rooms, a kitchen, lounge, and a full training space. None of it would have been possible without the incredible partnership of Colliers Engineering & Design, Deutsch Architecture Group, Fighter Country Foundation, and our amazing subcontractors who generously donated their time, materials, and expertise!
And a very special shoutout to our very own Josh Krenkel, who was honored with a coin from Fighter Country Foundation President, Ron Sites, for his dedication to this project. Josh made Luke AFB his second home over the past year, showing up every day (and most weekends) to bring this vision to life. We are SO proud of him! πβ€οΈ
To everyone who played a part in making this happen, and to the Honor Guard for their service to our county, thank you!
