Denzel Washington is the US Army’s newest (honorary) sergeant major
The Army formally announced Washington as the 2021 Honorary Sergeant Major of the Army recipient at the Annual Association of the U.S. Army conference on Monday. Washington was chosen because of his work with the Fisher House Foundation, a program focused on building homes at military medical centers around the world for military and veteran families to stay in while their loved one is receiving medical care.
Sgt. Maj. of the Army Michael Grinston, who presented the award to Washington, said that Washington represented everything he was looking for in this year’s honoree: humility, dedication to soldiers, and respect for the Army.

..."Washington said in his acceptance that while he’s received plenty of awards, “this is different,” and he vowed to “do everything in my power” to honor the men and women who serve in the U.S. military."
