A special award has been established to recognize the contributions of senior-level military and civilian officials assigned to Army headquarters at the Pentagon.
Called the Army Leadership Award, the honor is designed to recognize "the demonstrated superior accomplishments and leadership that contributed to the efficiency, efficacy and overall improvement in the operations of the Army or its elements," according to an implementing instruction (DA Memo 672-4) issued April 20.
The award will be presented upon an official's retirement or conclusion of service at Army headquarters.
The ALA will be awarded at the discretion and approval of the secretary of the Army, but eligibility is limited to a small cadre of senior leaders, as follows:
Military: Army chief of staff, Army vice chief of staff and sergeant major of the Army.
Civilian: Presidentially appointed and Senate-confirmed officials who serve as secretary of the Army, undersecretary of the Army, the five assistant secretaries of the Army and general counsel of the Army.
The award will consist of a miniature reproduction of the departing official's positional flag, framed and affixed with a small, engraved plaque stating "U.S. Army Leadership Award," and the recipient's name, title and period of qualifying service.
Nominations for the award will consist of a one-page narrative to be submitted on a DA Form 1256 (Incentive Award Nomination and Approval).
