The VEA (Volunteer Excellence Award) is a United States Air Force Chief of Staff level-Award. It was established to recognize federal civilians, family members, military retirees, and federal retirees who perform outstanding volunteer community service of a sustained, direct, and consequential nature. The VEA considers long term volunteerism over a number of years, which positively impacts military installations or the surrounding community. The intention is to recognize exemplary long-term community support. The call for nominations is open from 3-24 February 2025. We will recognize our nominees at the annual Volunteer Excellence Award Ceremony on 25 April 2025 at 1:30 p.m. which will be held at the Enlisted Club on Ramstein AB.
