Chosen recipient will participate in ceremony Nov. 6

HAYDEN - The city of Hayden's Veterans Committee is seeking nominations for a distinguished military veteran to be honored later this year.

The chosen veteran will be the individual who best epitomizes the spirit of "Duty, Honor, Country" both during his or her tour of military service and in continued service to the Hayden community.

The honored veteran may be from any branch of the military, be male or female, and have been enlisted, a warrant officer or a commissioned officer. It is preferred that the veteran has served "in harm's way."

The chosen veteran must agree to participate in Hayden's veterans ceremony on Nov. 6.

Those wishing to nominate a veteran for this honor should submit to a one- to two-page biography describing the highlights of the candidate's military experience and subsequent continued service to the local community.

Send information to the City of Hayden Veteran Affairs Committee, ATTN: Distinguished Veteran, 8930 North Government Way, Hayden, ID 83835.

Recommendations must be received by Sept. 1
