National Security Committee

The National Security Committee oversees the Foreign Relations, POW/MIA Program, Military Achievement Program, and the ROTC Scholarships.

• The Military Achievement Program recognizes outstanding enlisted members of all branches of the reserves and National Guard. Each post may submit candidates for all categories or any lesser number they choose from all the units in their area.
• ROTC Scholarships are distributed to all the universities offering ROTC programs, and to each service branch. Donations to this program should be encouraged and are handled through Department headquarters.
• National Foreign Relations Commission issues a handbook that is designed to explain the American Legion Foreign Relations Program. Use it to alert the posts of what they can do to further that program.
• The POW /MIA program is critical to ensure we never forget our missing brother and sister in arms and always respectfully honor them.
