was named a recipient of the U.S. Army Reserves Warrant Officer General Douglas Macarthur Leadership Award June 2.

This prestigious award is presented annually to the top company grade officers who demonstrate the ideals for which General MacArthur stood: Duty, Honor, and Country.

Chief Milo said that winning the award was meaningful to him because it represents the entire brigade.

The competition is open to 120,000 company grade officers in the rank of Warrant Officer 1, Chief Warrant Officer 2, Second Lieutenant, First Lieutenant, and Captain in the U.S. Army. The recipients will be recognized at a formal ceremony scheduled later this month.
