Air Force officials are seeking nominations for the 2013 Zachary and Elizabeth Fisher Distinguished Civilian Humanitarian Award.

The Fisher Award is presented annually to an individual or organization outside the Department of Defense that has demonstrated exceptional patriotism, generosity and selfless dedication to the members of the United States Armed Forces and their families through an outstanding humanitarian act or service.

Organizations and base-level personnel must contact their major command, field operating agency, or direct reporting unit for applicable suspense dates and additional information regarding nomination procedures. Each MAJCOM, FOA or DRU may submit one nomination. Completed nomination packages are due to the Air Force Personnel Center by March 26.
