U.S. Ambassador to Poland, Victor Ashe, and Mrs. Ashe, hosted a reception at their Residence on April 27 in honor of the contributions of Polish defense scientists to national security.  Over 100 scientists from military institutes and offices attended the reception, including a U.S. delegation from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency and the Air Force Research Laboratory. “The modern armed forces of free nations could not exist without the support of our scientists – highly intelligent people who work tirelessly to increase our security and defend freedom in a dangerous world,” remarked Ambassador Ashe.
