ROTC Medals

DON’T ORDER MORE THAN YOU NEED!
Many MOAA chapters support ROTC and Junior ROTC (JROTC) units in their area. As part of that support, chapters often present MOAA medals, which are provided free of charge by national MOAA to outstanding cadets each year.
It has come to our attention that some chapters are requesting more MOAA medals than they need. Please only order the number of medals your chapter needs so that we can ensure every chapter’s request can be met.
Current guidelines in the Council and Chapter Policies and Procedures Guide state no more than one cadet in a ROTC or JROTC unit may be presented with a MOAA medal in a given year, and no
individual is eligible to receive the medal more than once. (Click on the link above for additional guidance.) The recipient also should be selected by the individual’s unit commander, who coordinates the selection and presentation with the local chapter.
To request free MOAA medals, please call the Member Service Center at (800) 234-6622, or e-mail them at msc@moaa.org. We appreciate your cooperation.
