The Hawai‘i State Department of Defense once held Awards and Retirement luncheons twice a year. These luncheons recognized retiring Federal and state employees. Current employees who achieved 10, 20, 30 or more years of longevity received service awards. Luncheons were held at the Hale Koa Hotel.

This photograph shows Lennard Knutson and Gary Teed at the September 9, 2011 luncheon. Both were members of the 154th Civil Engineering Squadron. Lenny served as the squadron’s Readiness Manager. Gary served as the unit commander and the base civil engineer.
