Hitting the Northwest Florida Daily News Facebook feed is Valpariso Coca-Cola, a division of Coca-Cola Bottling Company UNITED, Inc., for their tribute to the brave military men and women serving at Eglin AFB.

An 800 case display of Coca-Cola beverages was constructed in the lobby of the Eglin Commissary by the Valparaiso Coca-Cola management team.

“We hoped the theme would highlight the day to day roles of our military and the missions that they support.  The F-15 “Strike Eagle” was built to represent the American all-weather multi-role strike fighter stationed on Eglin AFB,” said Jay Tyra, Area Manager, Large Store.
