Patriot Award for Military Support

VAA was recently recognized for its support of military service members by the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR). Staff Sergeant Dan Starr, a VAA technician and combat engineer with the Army Reserves, nominated Quin Vincent, Partner, and Doug Rohkohl, Associate Senior Designer, for the Patriot Award. In speaking about his reasons for the nominations, Dan said, “I do miss a fair amount of work for my service, and the company’s really good about understanding and accommodating that.” In tandem with flexibility concerning his schedule, Dan also noted his team members’ efforts to take on additional work during his absences.

The Patriot Award recognizes a variety of support resources from schedule flexibility to time off regarding care or deployment. Learn more about the award and ESGR efforts in your community.
