FORT NOVOSEL, Ala. — The US Army Aviation Center of Excellence (USAACE) and Fort Novosel held a Quarterly Volunteer Recognition Ceremony on Nov. 7, 2023, at The Landing to honor 28 Soldiers and community members, volunteering with nine different on-post agencies, who were awarded either the Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal or the Volunteer of the Quarter Award.

“Your commitment and dedication make a difference in our community,” said U.S. Army Col. John P. Miller III, the garrison commander of Fort Novosel to the awardees. “The value of your impact cannot be overstated. Your service gives us all the opportunity to see how volunteerism is one of the elements that makes our Fort Novosel Community great.”

Miller expressed his gratitude to the USAACE and Fort Novosel Soldiers, DA civilians, Soldier-family members and military retirees who devoted their time and resources into the installation and community while volunteering during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Miller and Mrs. Mollie Miller presented volunteers with a certificate and a peanut lapel pin in recognition of their selfless service.

Chester L. Davis was voted as the overall Volunteer of the quarter for his dynamic contributions to Fort Novosel. Davis also received a gift basket filled with items from Fort Novosel MWR.
