The work done by the Sustainable Ozarks Partnership to support all those who live and train at Fort Leonard Wood is remarkable and worthy of this recognition.” The award’s citation recognizes Fort Leonard Wood and the Sustainable Ozarks Partnership for “success in strengthening emergency response through the interconnection of water resources between the installation and community. This partnership provides reciprocal backup water supplies during future emergency situations that both improve water resiliency and enhance installation readiness.” McCaskill is a longtime advocate for Fort Leonard Wood and the Sustainable Ozarks Partnership. Earlier this year at the Sustainable Ozarks Partnership annual meeting, McCaskill discussed her efforts to support the work of Fort Leonard Wood and the surrounding community, including her work to secure $250 million for Fort Leonard Wood’s General Leonard Wood Army Hospital. As part of her Security & Defense Tour across the state last year, McCaskill visited Fort Leonard Wood where she met with Soldiers and observed a skills contest described as the “Super Bowl” of Army competitions to recognize outstanding warriors.
