George Thomas Award
Posted: Sun Oct 31, 2010 7:02 pm
For his many contributions to the club and the AotC, Gen. Lars Wistedt is hereby awarded the George Thomas Medal.
The recommendation from the field reads as follows:
Gentlemen:
I recommend Lars Wistedt for the George H. Thomas award for the following reasons:
Lars has been an active officer in the AotC for a considerable period. He rose through the ranks and has served two terms as Army Commander, two terms as a Cabinet Secretary, and is currently the Western Theatre Commander and a West Point Trainer. His most important contribution to the AotC might have been as serving as Army Commander during a Club up-evil that threatened the fabric of the Club institution by keeping the AotC out of direct confrontations.
I have served under and with Lars Wistedt since 2002 and feel he is without a doubt an officer who's achievements are emblematic for this award. Please cast an email vote which should be directed to Generals Riggs and Gross. Should you need criteria information about this award, please refer to the AotC web page for an explanation. Thank you for your attention. Salute.

Best Regards
Lars Wistedt
