US Senators Jim Webb (D-VA) and Thad Cochran (R-MS) will receive BAVF’s Gillispie Award, while Green and artist Tom Nielsen will share the Foundation’s Carlton Sherwood Award.
“We’re honored to recognize Senator Webb for his outstanding service to the residents of Virginia and support of the nation’s defense programs,” said BAVF President John Fales. “We’re equally proud to recognize J.J. Green’s exceptional security and defense broadcast coverage,” he said.
