VETERAN OF THE MONTH/QUARTER/YEAR

In an effort to create and maintain a culture of recognition, motivate high performance and
reinforce desired behaviors. A new award has been instituted by the Commander and the
leadership team to recognize outstanding Comrades who perpetuate the purposes set forth in our Congressional Charter.
 
Post and District leaders are encouraged to submit to headquarters a narrative write up on a comrade from their area that is leading from the front and supporting one or more of the purposes in Sec. 230102 of our Congressional Charter.  Nominations are due by the 25th of each month.  Nominations should be submitted on the Veteran of the Month Nomination Form.
 
Veteran of the Quarter will be chosen from the 3 monthly awardees for that quarter and the Veteran of the Year will be chosen from the Quarterly awardees. A limited number of "spot awards” will also be available.
