JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-RANDOLPH, Texas --  Nominations are due April 4 for the 6th Annual Scouting Salutes the Military Award, Air Force Personnel Center officials said.

Sponsored by the Boy Scouts of America, the award recognizes an enlisted member, grade E-4 through E-6, from each branch of the military who has displayed outstanding military service, performed a heroic deed or demonstrated extraordinary commitment to community service, and who has an existing or recent connection to scouting.

Organizations and base-level personnel must contact their major command, field operating agency, direct reporting unit or major command equivalent for suspense dates and nomination procedures.
