AFPC officials seek GEICO award nominations

  • Published
Air Force Personnel Center officials here are seeking nominations for the 2009 Government Employees Insurance Company's Military Service Awards.

The annual GEICO awards recognize enlisted servicemembers from all military service branches, Guard and Reserve for their contributions to military and civilian communities.

Awards will be given in three categories: drug and alcohol abuse prevention, fire safety and fire prevention, and traffic safety and accident prevention. The accident prevention category applies specifically to vehicle or motorcycle related accomplishments.

Organizations and base-level personnel must contact their major command, field operating agency, direct reporting unit or MAJCOM equivalent for applicable suspense dates and for additional information regarding nomination procedures. Nomination packages for all MAJCOM or equivalent agencies are due to AFPC by Oct. 15.

The award's period of service runs from Oct. 1, 2008, to Sept. 30, 2009. However, nominees' accomplishments could have been performed during the award period, be ongoing or span a period of several years. Nominees must have at least one year of obligated service through Dec. 31, 2010, to be eligible.
