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 either 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.

Each MAJCOM, FOA and DRU may submit one nomination, due to AFPC by April 4. For application package criteria and nomination package instructions, go to the myPers website at https://mypers.af.mil and enter “Annual Scouting Salutes the Military Award” in the search window.
