The Local Defense Group was created in early summer of 2023. Ret. Admiral Nancy LeScavage, Director of DCED Military Commission approached Susan Eberly and asked her if she would be willing to lead the local defense group for her County. She graciously agreed, because strengthening the relationship between our military installation officials and the community at large was an important mission.
The group meets every other month and consists of various military personnel from the Gap, as well as elected officials and business leaders from Lebanon County.
