About Freedom Team Salute

[Manchu34]

Freedom Team Salute is an official program sponsored by the Secretary of the Army and the Army Chief of Staff. The program is funded through the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Manpower and Reserve Affairs (M&RA).

This is not a fund-raising project. There is no cost to participate. Anyone can honor a U.S. Army Veteran. Active Duty, Reserve, and National Guard Soldiers can honor their parents, spouse, and employer.

Recipients of a Freedom Team Salute Commendation package will receive:

* Official Army Lapel Pin (mounted on a card)
* Official Army Decal
* Certificate of Appreciation signed by both the Chief of Staff and the Secretary of the Army
* Letter of Thanks signed by both the Chief of Staff and the Secretary of the Army

The Freedom Team Salute Opportunity

Freedom Team Salute gives Active Duty, Reserve and National Guard Soldiers the opportunity to recognize and honor a parent's service, a spouse's commitment, and an employer's long-standing support with a Commendation tailored to their contribution.

Freedom Team Salute also gives everyone the opportunity to recognize U.S. Army Veterans with a Commendation for their dedicated service and continued support of today's Soldiers. The general public and civilians, as well as all service members, can submit the names of an unlimited number of U.S. Army Veterans to Freedom Team Salute.

After you register and log in, you can submit someone's name and they will receive a Freedom Team Salute Commendation in four to six weeks.
