Truman Award for Distinguished Service in Support of National Defense from the National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) for her work throughout her career in support of U.S. national security. The Harry S. Truman Award for Distinguished Service in Support of National Defense was authorized by the NGAUS Board of Directors in 1968 and is the highest recognition conferred upon an individual by the Association. Photos from the award presentation can be found HERE. “My work on behalf of the National Guard has been a point of pride in both my Senate and gubernatorial careers so I’m very honored to be recognized today by the National Guard Association,” said Senator Shaheen. “My gratitude goes out to all the men and women who risk their lives every day in defense of our nation, particularly the New Hampshire Air National Guard’s 157th Air Refueling Wing who deployed in support of Operation Epic Fury and the brave soldiers from New Hampshire’s own Charlie Company, 172nd Mountain Infantry Regiment, who deployed last month in support of Operation Spartan Shield.” “The Harry S. Truman Award is our association’s highest honor,” said retired Army Maj. Gen. Francis M. McGinn, the NGAUS president. “It is reserved for individuals who have made sustained contributions of exceptional and far-reaching magnitude to the defense and security of the United States in a manner worthy of recognition at the national level. Senator Jeanne Shaheen is that kind of patriot.” ### | 1 | 2026-07-16T07:21:44Z | 2026-07-16T07:23:13Z |
