Please join BENS for a luncheon conversation with incoming BENS President and CEO, General Timothy M. Ray, USAF (Ret.) on Thursday, September 28th at the Harvard Club. This will be an opportunity for NY Metro members to meet with and hear directly from General Ray.
General Ray retired from the United States Air Force in 2021 after 35+ years of service. His last tour of duty was as Commander, Air Force Global Strike Command, where he led the nation’s Air Force Strategic Strike forces in daily operations to support national objectives globally. Concurrent to that role, he served as the Commander of Air Forces Strategic-Air, U.S. Strategic Command with a focus on strategy and operational excellence. He was also a member of the Air Force’s “Corporate Board” team of senior leaders, shaping future force structure, modernization, and budget priorities for the Service.
General Ray is widely recognized for developing, fielding, operating, and sustaining security capabilities as a result of his vast experience and insights across multiple disciplines: technology development and acquisition, joint and combined military operations from the tactical to the strategic, executive leadership, civil-military relationships, and international security.
