WDVA Seeks VETERAN LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD Nominees
Posted at 10:00 AM on Tuesday, June 17, 2008 by dist7
(MADISON) – The Wisconsin Board of Veterans Affairs is seeking nominations for its Veteran Lifetime Achievement Award to be presented at its meeting on August 15, 2008 in Superior, Wis.
The Veteran Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes Wisconsin veterans who have compiled a record of exemplary service as a military service member, a veteran, and as a citizen during the veteran’s lifetime. The August 2008 award recipient will be selected from among nominations received for veterans residing in all counties statewide. Nominations for the Board’s August meeting must be postmarked no later than July 15, 2008.
The award is part of the Board’s ongoing efforts to underscore its commitment to taking veterans issues out to where veterans live, work, and enjoy the freedoms of our great country and to encourage greater veteran participation in Board of Veterans Affairs meetings.
The Board, through a subcommittee appointed by the Board Chair, will select the recipients from nominations submitted by individuals (including family members of the nominee), veterans service and other organizations, county veterans service officers, and fellow veterans.
The first Veteran Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Eugene P. Moran, a World War II veteran from Soldiers Grove, on October 18, 2007 at the National Guard Armory in Platteville. Dr. James C. Allen, a Korean War veteran from Madison, received an award on February 20, 2008. He was instrumental in the enactment of the Dr. James C. Allen Veterans Vision Equity Act, authorized by Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin (D-WI). A June award will be announced on June 20th.
There will be six annual awards, four regional and two statewide. Nominations may be submitted at any time during the year, but no later than the 15th of the month prior to each proposed award. Completed nominations should be mailed to: Wisconsin Board of Veterans Affairs Lifetime Achievement Award, Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs, 30 W. Mifflin St., P.O. Box 7843, Madison, WI 53707-7843, or faxed to: (608) 264-7616.
Nomination forms and more information about the award are available online at www.WisVets.com/boardaward, or by calling WDVA toll-free at 1-800-WIS-VETS (1-800-947-8387).
