Within the detachment, there is no award higher than that of the "Associate Member of the Year" that can be bestowed upon a Marine Corps League Associate Member by the Associate Member of the Year Society.

 

All detachments have an Associate Member who performs and displays the dedication, leadership qualities and principles of a good Marine above all others.

 

It is this Associate Member who is always willing to roll up his/her sleeves to do that tough job, the daunting tasks or put in the long hours of personal sacrifice, without hopes of reward, all to achieve the goals of the detachment and the Marine Corps League.  All of this is evaluated through the Associate Member participation, and noteworthy accomplishments, perseverance and devotion to duty.

 

"Associate Member of the Year" is the award to recognize that special Associate Member.
