ROGERS, AR – Russell Mears, an AV coordinator for Swank Audio Visual, recently returned from overseas active duty with the Air National Guard. He so grateful for the support that he and his family received while deployed that he nominated Swank AV for The Freedom Award, the highest recognition given by the U.S. Government to employers of Guard and Reserve service members. The award recipients chosen from the 2011 nominees will be announced later this year and honored in Washington, D.C. at the 16th annual Secretary of Defense Employer Support Freedom Award ceremony, set for Sept. 22, 2011.
"It's more than our legal responsibility or patriotic duty," said Tim Brady, Swank AV's Executive VP/COO. "At Swank Audio Visuals, we are a family. We support and truly care about one another. That's why we do whatever we can to make these transitional moments in our team members' lives as easy as possible. Everyone chips in, steps up and lends a helping hand where needed."
