BACKGROUND:
The Ammunition Hall of Fame was established in October 2011 to memorialize and honor former members of the ammunition community who have made significant and lasting contributions to the U.S. Army ammunition mission.
Individuals will be chosen solely on their significant contributions to the U.S. Army ammunition mission and each selectee will be able to stand up to close scrutiny. Attainment of high rank or position is not necessarily indicative of a significant contribution to the mission. Likewise, rank, sex, ethnicity and/or religion are not discriminators.

documentation. If corrective action is not taken, the nomination will be returned to the nominator without action.
How long does a nomination remain active?
Once submitted, the nomination will remain active for two consecutive years. After two
consecutive reviews by the selection board, the nomination will be placed in an inactive status. The nominee may be nominated
for three consecutive two year consideration periods. After that the nominee can be considered again if re-nominated after a
one year waiting period. If an individual is re-nominated during the waiting period the nomination will be effective when the
