Award Examples Enlisted Recognition Program Airman of the Quarter 8M000/Assistant Postmaster Award Cat: AMN Winner: no
Key Points to Writing If you haven't already, take a writing class WRITE!!! The more you do it, the better you get. Don't be afraid to ask for HELP. The only person looking out for either you or your subordinate is YOU! Use a spell checker (F7 in Office)  Remember, writing doesn't have to win to REWARD! Use various writing resources like Merriam-Webster Online.

The following Airman of the Quarter example has been taken out of a IMT document.  I did not change mission information, only names to protect myself and the people I have received the information from.  If you have anything you would like to submit, please do so.  If you have found this information useful, please let me know. Everyone of these letters has taken considerable amount of time to put together.  Please treat yourself to something special from one of the ads on the page.  We will both get something out of it.  (All money gathered pays for hosting fees and domain fees.  HONESTLY, when I see money come in it also prompts me to work harder on the site.)

Note:

I am beginning to really like the job description on the top of the award package.  It helps understand the award.  The award had a couple of minor numbering problems.  The only thing that could of helped strengthed this award package would of been tying it to those members deployed to the desert, hence showing thousands of parcels going out to increase moral may have strengthened it overall (if it did happen).
