 Operation Home Front recently held the sixth annual Military Child of the Year Awards Gala in Arlington, Virginia. The award recognizes outstanding military children who demonstrate resiliency, leadership, and achievement. The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Army General Martin Dempsey and singer-songwriter Brett Michaels, were the keynote speakers, and they even performed a duet. The kids we're going to meet tonight, great young men and women of military families. They won't be bystanders and they will not accept mediocrity and they will make a difference. Five children were honored, one for each branch of service. This year's Navy Award recipient is Brian Patrick Curtin. Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Jonathan Greenert praised Patrick for his accomplishments and presented him with the award. From the Defense Media Activity, I'm Petty Officer Tyrell Morris.
