WASHINGTON (June 2, 2015) – The Principal Military Deputy to the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA(ALT)) and Director, Acquisition Career Management, Lt. Gen. Michael E. Williamson, today said that he wants to hear from military and civilian members of the Army Acquisition Corps and greater Army Acquisition Workforce (AAW) about how they honor the oath of office each day.

“Whether military or civilian, we all began our careers by taking an oath to support and defend the U.S. Constitution.” Williamson said. “I want to hear from our acquisition professionals about how they honor the oath of office each day.”

He is inviting AAW members, individually or collectively as teams, to record and submit 15 to 30 second videos that answer the question, “How do you honor the oath of office each day?” Pictures and collages with captions, as well as short written statements are acceptable as well.

“Our professionals work hard to serve the American people and the Soldiers who defend them,” Williamson said. “They live and honor the oath each day. This AAWHonorsTheOath campaign is another opportunity to showcase their amazing stories.”

The deadline for submissions is July 24, 2015, to usarmy.pentagon.hqda-asa-alt.list.communications@mail.mil.
