Military Excellence Celebrated at 31st Annual Military Appreciation Breakfast
Anchorage, AK – In a heartfelt tribute to the brave men and women who serve our nation, Global Credit Union hosted its 31st Annual Alaska Military Appreciation Breakfast on February 13, 2026. This event honored the Alaska Armed Services YMCA’s 13 Service Members of the Year recipients, the Military Spouse of the Year, and the recipient of the 2026 Bobby Alexander Civic Leader of the Year.
Service members from all active-duty branches, as well as the Guard and Reserves, were nominated by their supervisors for their outstanding achievements. Each nominee was then interviewed by a panel for recognition and awards.
Guests included the command teams of the honorees, Global Credit Union Board members, and other members of Global’s senior leadership team.
“Global Credit Union is honored to host this annual breakfast to celebrate the remarkable achievements of Alaska's military members and their families. Their unwavering dedication to serving our nation inspires us to strive for excellence every day. We are deeply grateful for their invaluable contributions to our community," said Geoff Lundfelt, President and CEO, Global Credit Union. "Their commitment and sacrifice remind us of the values we hold dear and motivate us to support and uplift those who serve."
