In honor of the birth of the United States, COL Candice Frost ’98 came home to Muscatine for Independence Day.
As the Almost Fireworks Fest was winding down to when fireworks would be shot over the Mississippi River, Frost gave the keynote speech that was followed by a flyover from a Chinook helicopter.
Frost most recently served as the Joint Intelligence Operations Center commander, where she oversaw about 300 people working to keep the United States safe from cyberattacks. Mayor Brad Bark, also the director of the Greater Muscatine Chamber of Commerce and Industry, gave Frost the key to the city on the stage under the flag.
