Our Army is doing a tremendous job defending America's freedom. However, our success depends on strong supporters standing with us as we fight the Global War on Terrorism. I encourage you to take the time to say "Thank You" to those special individuals that help us accomplish our duties.
»» read moreThe U.S. Army's Freedom Team Salute program was initiated by the Secretary of the Army and the Army Chief of Staff to provide all currently serving Soldiers a sincere, heartfelt way to recognize their Parents and Spouses for their support and sacrifice. Guard and Reserve Soldiers can also recognize their Employers during these trying times. Additionally, anyone can honor the millions of discharged U.S. Army Veterans who served with distinction; and, other Army Supporters, who continue to make significant contributions to the Army's mission (for example, a Soldier's child or other relative, a Family Readiness Group Leader, Department of the Army Civilians, or an active community member, etc.).
Those honored will receive a personalized letter of thanks and certificate of appreciation signed by the Secretary and Chief of Staff of the Army; an official Army lapel pin; and, Army decals. The entire commendation package is prepared and mailed at no cost to either you or the recipient.
Honoring someone is quick and easy. Simply visit the U.S. Army Freedom Team Salute website at www.FreedomTeamSalute.com and complete an online commendation form. For additional information or assistance, please contact Freedom Team Salute at info@FreedomTeamSalute.com.
Army Strong!
