Mr. Roger Buckwalter grew up in Juno Beach and has, over the years, contributed valuable historical information to both the Town and the Juno Beach Civic Association.
Roger is the former editor of the Jupiter Courier, a Vietnam Veteran, author, speaker and recipient of the Juno Beach Civic Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award.
Mr. Buckwalter was in New York City a month after the 9/11 tragedy and in visiting Ground Zero, he experienced the aftermath of the destruction. Roger was taken with the outreach of people from all over the world and the affect of everyone coming together as one in unity, to face this horrific assault on America. Roger is a patriotic and gifted orator.
We look forward to having Mr. Buckwalter as the guest speaker at the 2019 Juno Beach 9/11 Memorial event.
