U.S. Air Force Capt. Chris Brown, a 2019 Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets alumnus who earned his degree in meteorology from the College of Natural Resources and Environment, was selected as the Hokie Hero for Saturday’s Homecoming game against Wake Forest.
The Hokie Hero program honors corps alumni who are deployed. Recipients are highlighted by Bill Roth and Mike Burnop during their radio broadcast of Hokie football games, on the Corps of Cadets website, and in the Corps Review alumni magazine.
Brown is deployed as an F-16 pilot to the Middle East in support of U.S. operational areas that include Iraq, Syria, and the Red Sea. His home unit is the 55th Fighter Squadron at Shaw Air Force Base in South Carolina. During his time in the corps, Brown participated in the Navigators fellowship group and was a member of Golf Company.
