The Angels of the Battlefield Award pays tribute to military medical personnel and first responders for their life-saving medical treatment and trauma care of service members, partner forces and civilians at home and abroad. The Armed Services YMCA works with the military services to select an honoree from each branch. These Angels of the Battlefield are courageous and compassionate men and women who risk everything and are often the reason many of our nation’s heroes wounded in battle or civilians in distress make it home to their families.
Our sponsors and partners enable the ASYMCA to provide more programs and services to more junior enlisted military families across the country. We are grateful for their commitment, generous support, and advancement of our mission to strengthen our military family.
