2018 GUEST SPEAKERS
TONY ROSE
Pentagon
​
On 9/11/2001, Sergeant Major Tony
Rose was in his Pentagon second floor office when American Airlines flight 77 slammed into the building at over 400
miles per hour. The plane exploded directly under his office. Twenty-nine fellow soldiers, civilian employees, and
friends perished around him. SGM
Rose speaks with tones of reverence, sprinkled with humor, as he helps audiences understand the horrors, miracles, hope, and heroes deep inside the Pentagon that day. The key to his survival is not what you would expect to
hear.
SGM Rose received the Army
Soldier’s Medal for Heroism for reentering the burning building five times to save lives and the Purple Heart for personal injuries incurred. SGM Rose’s
numerous awards and decorations
include Israel’s Mighty Man of Valor Award and the American Yellow Ribbon of Freedom Award. He served in the Army over 31 years.
He and Beverly Rose have been married for 43 years and live in Elizabethtown, KY. Beverly is also an Army veteran (don’t tell anyone that she used to be Tony’s boss). Their energetic and infectious love for the United States, our Constitution, and Old Glory reminds everyone why “Freedom Is Not Free!”
