For the past 49 years, the Hennessy Trophy has been presented to the United States Air Force installations judged to have the best food-service programs. The judging is conducted by distinguished members of the wider foodservice community, including representatives from both commercial and noncommercial segments, who travel around the world to tour and evaluate the competing operations.
Among the "Hennessy Travellers" who visited the various competing installations around the world and judged their foodservice operations was SFM President Russ Benson.
This year, Kirtland (NM) Air Force Base was named the winner in the singlefacility category while Hurlburt (FL) Field won the multiple-facility category.
