Congratulations to Mike Pogany, director of electric operation for South Dakota! Mike was recently selected as an Honorary Commander for the 28th Operation Support Squadron at Ellsworth Air Force Base.

The Honorary Commander program partners community leaders with commanders on base to foster relationships between the base and the larger community. Mike will serve for two years and gain an in-depth understanding of the mission of Ellsworth AFB and the day-to-day duties of the airmen and families of the 28th Operations Support Squadron. In turn, Mike will help the squadron leadership team get integrated in the Black Hills community.

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Follow us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedInTwitter, YouTube, and Pinterest for more!
