FORT LEE, Va. — The Fort Lee Public Affairs Office is now accepting submissions for its long-standing tribute to high school graduates.
The installation’s 2026 High School Graduation Tribute will be presented in an online digital format again this year.
This special product—published for the past 19 years—serves as an opportunity to highlight the e
fforts of community youth who have demonstrated perseverance, self-discipline and, in many cases, courage to complete their grade-school journeys. PAO will feature the 2026 High School Graduation Tribute on social media at www.Facebook.com/FortLeeUSArmy and other platforms.
Last year’s salute reached tens of thousands and resulted in hundreds of likes, loves, comments and shares.
All Team Lee members can participate, including active-duty military, reservists, retirees, government civilians and contractors. To acknowledge as many high school seniors as possible prior to normally scheduled commencement activities, participants are asked to send their submissions before the deadline of June 12.
Photo submissions should be copyright-free (if taken by a studio or commercial vendor), well-lit, in-focus and saved in jpeg format. For the best display quality, the photo should be no smaller than 3-by-5 inches.
The following items are needed to participate in the tribute:
• Head-and-shoulders photo of each graduate
• First and last name of each student and each parent
• The parent’s place of duty and military rank, if applicable
• Student’s age and high school
• A telephone number to be used (but not published) if additional information is needed.
Materials can be submitted via email to ArmyFortLee.PAO@army.mil. For hand delivery, the PAO is located in the Soldier Support Center, building 3400, room 117, on Barfoot Avenue. For questions, contact the PAO staff at 804-734-7451 or 571-644-6000.
