Major General George W. Keefe: Honoring the Legacy
104th Fighter Wing
Video by Airman Camille Lienau
Oct. 30, 2019 | 1:26
Major General George W. Keefe was the first Air National Guardsman to serve as adjutant general of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Major General Keefe enlisted in the Massachusetts Air National Guard in 1956 and served for 12 years in fire protection and personnel before commissioning as a personnel officer.  In entirety he spent 49 years in service. Major General Keefe's hard work and determination allowed him to become enshrined in the US Air Forces Enlisted Heritage Hall at Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama as one of the few General Officers who rose from the ranks of Airman to General officer. The 104th Fighter Wing pays tribute to a leader who helped shape the future of the Massachusetts Air National Guard. More
