Milwaukee Armed Forces Week


ONE OF THE LARGEST ARMED FORCES CELEBRATIONS IN THE NATION  -  FEATURING A WEEK OF EVENTS  LEADING UP TO ARMED FORCES DAY, CELEBRATED ON THE THIRD SATURDAY IN MAY EVERY YEAR
 

MAY 15-20, 2023


Milwaukee has celebrated Armed Forces Week for more than 20 years, honoring the sacrifices given by past and present military members and their families of all branches who reside in , work in, or are from the Milwaukee area and surrounding communities. The week-long celebration features several events open to the public and culminates at our Military Display at Harley Davidson Museum on Armed Forces Day.

Forward  For  Freedom

The 2023 theme for Milwaukee Armed Forces Week is “Forward for Freedom.” 
 
“We have overcome so much in the past few years: a pandemic, divisive politics, social justice issues, ending a war, and now global conflict,” says Tom Plantenberg, president of Milwaukee Armed Services Committee (MASC). “Our goal is to help our Milwaukee community move forward in unity, ideally in all things, but especially in celebrating our great Armed Forces and all of their contributions over the past few years.”
