Benefit Concert for MSgt Jennipher Brown

Benefit Concert for MSgt Jennipher Brown Clinch 46, will perform a benefit concert Sunday, June 26, from 4 to 7 pm at Helen Back on Okaloosa Island. I'd like to invite everyone to come out and to show their support for MSgt Jennipher Brown. Because of the nature of her illness, Master Sgt. Brown requires round-the-clock observation, which her boyfriend and loved ones - who live in Crestview and Bluewater Bay - are taking turns providing. She was very recently diagnosed, just as she was preparing to move from the area, as the 33rd transitions into the home of the F-35 training school.

      Hurlburt Air Force Base

Northwest Florida supports three military installations; Eglin Air Force Base, Hurlburt Field and Duke Field collectively on the largest base in the world: Eglin Air Force Base. These three installations are collectively known as the Eglin Complex. This expansive military presence is the primary contributor in Okaloosa’s growing economy. These local bases support over 60,000 active military civilian and military dependants in our economy. Due to this presence there is a greater density of technology-based and defense contracting firms located within the county.
