2.  The sponsor for the awards is the Marine Corps Ground Ordnance Maintenance Association. Due to time and funding constraints, it is not feasible to conduct an awards banquet.  The absence of a formal awards banquet does not detract from the importance of the awards. Awards should be presented via appropriate local ceremonies.
2.a.  I, II, and III Marine Expeditionary Force G-4 Ordnance representatives will coordinate with the local GOMA representatives for delivery of awards and follow-on presentation.
