uring all the hustle and bustle of the 2022 Associ- ation of the United States Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition in Washington, the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisi-
tion, Logistics and Technology (ASA(ALT)) set aside a room for a very special induction ceremony. Te standing-room-only event commemorated the contributions of legendary Army acquisition professionals, both living and deceased.
Te first four inductees to the Army Acquisition Hall of Fame were honored at the Oct. 12 ceremony. Te Honorable Kevin Fahey, along with family members of the late John Shipley, Claude M. Bolton Jr. and Maj. Gen. Harold J. “Harry” Greene, were in attendance to accept the awards.
Te Army Acquisition Hall of Fame was established to recognize and honor acquisition professionals who have made significant and enduring contributions in support of Army acquisition and the joint force. Lt. Gen. Robert L. Marion, principal military deputy to the ASA(ALT), led the effort. “It has been my honor to work in Army acquisition and be part of such a professional and dedicated workforce,” he said. “We in the Army Acquisition Workforce have a strong sense of heritage, honor and pride. Tis Army Acquisition Hall of Fame will strengthen that sentiment.”
“Tese four inaugural Army Acquisition Hall of Fame recipients represent what is truly remarkable about the Army and Army acquisition,” said the Honorable Douglas R. Bush, assistant secre- tary of the Army for acquisition, logistics and technology and the Army acquisition executive. “Tey represent decades of quiet and noble service, often behind the scenes, to our great and grateful nation. Tey represent commitment and sacrifice, loyalty to the mission as well as those with whom they served.”
Te Honorable Gabe Camarillo, undersecretary of the Army, provided remarks during the ceremony. Camarillo previously served as the principal deputy ASA(ALT), helping to lead and supervise Army modernization programs, procurement, logistics, and research and development investment. Te Army Acquisi- tion Hall of Fame “is very important because of the work that the acquisition workforce in our Army does. It is one of the most, if not the most, versatile workforces you’ll find anywhere in the federal space and certainly in the Army,” he said. “It performs a role that requires expertise that is really unmatched anywhere in DOD.” When speaking about the four award recipients, Camarillo said, “We are all enriched by the example they set for all of us.”
