DA, ARNG and WVARNG policy is to recognize outstanding effort and achievement in the prevention of accidents. Major commands and separate facilities and activities will take cognizance of their subordinate commands, activities and individuals when significant contributions are made to the efficiency, economy and improvement of WVARNG operations through accident prevention. Awards will be made to individuals and units on the basis of their total safety record. Commanders should use the checklist provided in CHAP 9 NGR 385-10 as a guide in determining award qualifications.
