Each year, St. Albans VFW Post 6418 recognizes the top Cadet from each of the Junior ROTC programs in St. Albans, West Virginia. The instructor in each program selects an outstanding Cadet who is in the last two years of their program, is actively engaged in the JROTC program, and possesses individual qualities that contribute to leadership.

 

In order to be considered, the Cadet must have:

• A positive attitude toward their JROTC program
• Outstanding military bearing and conduct
• Strong, positive personal attributes
  
• Demonstrated Patriotism and promotion of Americanism
• Demonstrated Leadership Potential
• An average grade of "B” or better in their JROTC program
• An average grade of "C” or better in all other subjects
• Participation in student activities
• No prior award

 

 

This award consists of a Certificate, Bronze Medal and Ribbon (shown to the left), and a $100 Cash Award.

Traditionally, the presentation is done by two VFW Post 6418 Officers at the JROTC Unit's annual awards

ceremony.
