To: VFW Awards Committee 10/10/2019

I am honored to nominate Matt Bundy. I have had the privilege of working with Mr. Bundy since 2013. He is a leader and quietly goes above and beyond, helping students in and outside of the classroom.

Mr. Bundy’s signature event is telling his 9/11 story. He was scheduled to fly that day and was called out of an aircrew briefing to stand up the Wing Battle Staff. The wing received deployment orders and the next 85 days were spent deploying the Wing.For the full story, pick up a copy of the Mountain Home News or click on this link to subscribe to the newspaper's online edition.
