A Northern Virginia District Commander has been recognized by the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW).
Charles “Chuck” Wilson from VFW District 10 has received “All-American” status, according to a release.
To earn the honor, commanders must support VFW core program, demonstrate “exceptional leadership,” and have growth in VFW membership.
“The All-American Commanders have attained this coveted title through outstanding achievements in membership growth and participation in VFW programs,” VFW National Commander Keith Harman said in a release. “They are a fine example of VFW leadership. Their hard work and dedication to the mission and values of our organization has rightly earned them this great honor.”
Wilson, a retired Air Force colonel, served as a U-2 pilot, U.S. Air Force commander, and Department of State senior official.
He received his bachelor’s from Indiana University and his master’s from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University.
