ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Coast Guard Sector Anchorage awarded the 2021 Rear Adm. Bennett “Bud” Sparks award for the under 100 reservist assigned category.
The award is presented annually by the Reserve Organization of America to recognize a unit determined to be the most supportive of an operationally ready Coast Guard Reserve Force as demonstrated by its practical use and support.
“It’s an incredible honor for Sector Anchorage to be selected for the Bud Sparks Award,” said Capt. Leanne Lusk, commander, Sector Anchorage. “Our Reserve members are incredibly dedicated. They work very hard to maintain their competencies and earn new qualifications and naturally integrate into our teams. They are the reason we’re able to accomplish our unique multi-mission responsibilities throughout the Arctic, Western Alaska, and Southcentral Alaska.”
