The National Defense Briefing Series (NDBS) announced that Vice Chairman of Hillwood Management and Civilian Aide to the Secretary of the Army for North Texas (CASA), Darcy Anderson ’78, has been selected as the esteemed recipient of the 2024 Congressman Sam Johnson Defender of Freedom Award. This prestigious honor will be formally presented to him at a January 20, 2024, ceremony at Heritage Ranch Golf and Country Club in Fairview, Texas, at 6:00 p.m.

His consistent and invaluable contributions have fortified our nation’s defense and provided unwavering support to those who “stand in the gap” for our collective security and peace.
