COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- In an effort to reach out to the junior enlisted community in Colorado Springs and Denver, and in thanks for their service, the Air Force Academy Athletic Association has launched the "Tickets for Troops" program for a second year.

Under this program, junior enlisted servicemembers (E-6 and below) can purchase discounted season and individual game tickets for the 2009 Falcon Football season. Tickets are available in reserved seating sections (normally costing $144) in Falcon Stadium for only $20 for a season ticket or $4 for an individual game ticket.

Enlisted members may purchase these tickets for themselves and their families by stopping by the Air Force ticket office on the Air Force Academy or by calling either 719-472-1895 or 1-800-666-8723.

For more information, contact Dermot Coll at 719-333-9046.
