History
Discover stories, updates, and insights from those who serve and support the TACP community—where connection, honor, and impact come to life.
TACP TIMELINE
Every generation of TACP has carried the fight forward—from the beaches of Normandy to the deserts of the Middle East. This timeline honors that legacy, showing how a handful of airmen became the backbone of close air support and the voice connecting ground forces to the sky.

LIVING LEGACIES
A Living Legacy is built around a single TACP’s career—told in their own words through a transcribed interview, supported by their service records, and carried by photographs from every stage of their time in and out of the fight. Each volume preserves one operator’s story exactly as it deserves to be kept.
Its purpose is twofold: to safeguard the missions, moments, and men who shaped TACP history, and to place that history in the hands of the families who earned it. Long after the uniform comes off, a Living Legacy remains—a heirloom that lets future generations understand the weight of the name they carry.
