Comprising individuals with decades of leadership, dedication, and lived experience, the Advisory Council will help guide the Military250 campaign—an initiative commemorating the 250th anniversaries of the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps. The campaign offers a moment to reflect on the enduring contributions of service members, veterans, and military families to our nation’s history and future, while calling for a renewal of patriotic participation in civic life.
“The Military250 campaign is a tribute to the service and sacrifice that have shaped our nation and a call to action for Americans to step forward in service to the nation and our local communities,” said Christine Dorfler, Advisory Committee Co-Chair. “We are honored to be a part of such a remarkable group of leaders advising on this effort, united by a shared belief that continued service—both in and out of uniform—is essential to our country’s future.”
General George W. Casey Jr. (U.S. Army, Ret.) served 41 years in the U.S. Army, culminating in his role as the 36th Chief of Staff of the Army. In retirement, he continues to support the military community through policy leadership, teaching, authorship, and board service.
Christine Dorfler is the Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of the National Football League (NFL). A U.S. Army veteran and former Military Intelligence Officer, she brings both executive acumen and firsthand military experience to the campaign.
The Military250 Campaign is a year-long national initiative celebrating the founding anniversaries of the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps. It seeks to elevate the voices of veterans and military families, promote civic participation, and foster a renewed commitment to service and community.
We the Veterans and Military Families empowers the military-connected community to strengthen America through patriotic participation. Led by veterans and military family members, the organization works to promote civic engagement and uphold the values that unite our nation.
