2. IN RECENT YEARS, THE MTA HAS HELD AN ANNUAL AWARDS BANQUET, IN THE NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION, TO RECOGNIZE AWARD WINNERS. REGRETTABLY, FISCAL CONSTRAINTS PREVENT THE MTA FROM EXECUTING A FORMAL EVENT TO RECOGNIZE 2013 AWARD WINNERS. THE ABSENCE OF A FORMAL AWARDS BANQUET DOES NOT DETRACT FROM THE IMPORTANCE OF THE AWARDS, AND AWARDS SHOULD BE PRESENTED IN APPROPRIATE LOCAL CEREMONIES.
2.A. MARINE EXPEDITIONARY FORCE (MEF) G-4 MOTOR TRANSPORT OFFICES, LOGISTICS OPERATIONS SCHOOL (LOS) AND MOTOR TRANSPORT INSTRUCTION COMPANY (MTIC) WILL COORDINATE WITH THE MTA AWARDS CHAIRMAN FOR DELIVERY OF AWARDS AND FOLLOW-ON PRESENTATION.
