National Awards 






The US Submarine Veteran's National Award Program recognizes members or bases whose contributions to the organization or their local community stand out. Any USSVI member in good standing may nominate any other member in good standing (or entity such as a Base, where appropriate and stated in the Award description) for any of the above awards with the exception of the Newsletter of the Year, which is not a nominated award.
