2022 Vanguard Award Recipients - The NCOA Military Vanguard Award is presented annually to a single member from each of the Armed Services who has distinguished himself/herself through acts of heroism.  This award commemorates and honors a Medal of Honor recipient from each branch of service.  Military service is based on a sense of  duty, on the assumption that the common good is more important than the individual, that the welfare of the whole supersedes individual rights.  The actions meriting the receipt of this award by our 2022 honorees personify the spirit and intent of this prestigious recognition.
