Insurer announces plans to contribute toward the construction of the new
                    landmark located at Fort Benning, Ga.

COLUMBUS, Ga., March 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Aflac Foundation announced today a $1 million gift toward the development of a new National Infantry Museum and Heritage Park. Built on 200 acres linking Columbus, Ga., and Fort Benning, the world-class facility will honor the 231-year legacy of the Army's largest branch, the Infantry.

"The Aflac Foundation is proud to support the building of the National Infantry Museum as a tribute to the soldiers who have given so much to our country. The sacrifices made by soldiers and their families should always be remembered," said Aflac Foundation President Kathelen Amos. "The museum complex is a wonderful addition to our community and a fitting tribute to the United States Infantry. It signifies the history and the ongoing vital role Columbus and Fort Benning have in our nation's military efforts."

In honor of Aflac's $1 million gift, which will be paid over 10 years, the company will receive naming rights to the Soldier Memorial Garden. This area of the museum complex will serve as the gateway to the Memorial Walk of Honor, a site for paying homage to fallen soldiers. The location will include soil from the resting places of American soldiers outside the U.S.

"The community is fortunate to have a corporate citizen like Aflac," said Museum Lead Gifts Chair Brad Turner. "They support and affect just about every facet of community life, and I would hate to think of what our area would be like without Aflac."

In addition to the Memorial Walk of Honor, the project will include a parade field, an authentic World War II Company Street and a 3-D IMAX Theatre. The facility will provide an interactive experience for visitors and display an impressive collection of artifacts covering all facets of the history of the United States Infantry from its inception to the present. Construction on the new museum began in January; completion is expected in 2008. For more information, visit www.nationalinfantryfoundation.org
