Mark Reddy of Olivet Nazarene University speaks after receiving the ESGR Above and Beyond Award for his support of Army Reserve Maj. Landon Miller's military career. "I was actively hired because I was in the military," Miller said. "The university created the Director of Military and Veterans Affairs position for me so they could better support the military who are on campus. Other employees within my department have provided support to my family when I am away for military training. This has been assistance with childcare or providing my family with meals when I am away for extended periods." Brig. Gen. Dan McDonough, the Assistant Adjutant General - Air of the Illinois National Guard and Commander of the Illinois Air National Guard, was the keynote speaker for the Illinois Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve Awards Banquet, May 17, at the Marriott in Normal, Illinois. The banquet honored employers throughout the state who have helped their National Guard and Reserve employees serve and defend their communities and nation. By supporting their service members, these employers are also defending our nation, McDonough said.
