Veterans Hall of Fame to induct 15

The Arkansas Military Veterans Hall of Fame is accepting nominations from the public through Aug. 31 for inductees into the 2013 class.

The goal of the hall of fame is to honor exceptional military achievements of Arkansans and to educate the public about those accomplishments.

An induction banquet is scheduled from 6 to 9 p.m. Nov. 1 at the Embassy Suites in west Little Rock. As many as 15 veterans will be inducted into the hall of fame and awarded the hall of fame medallion. Last year, U.S. Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., presented the medallions. Of the 15 inductees, 10 will be inducted for exceptional military accomplishments and five will be selected for combined military and civilian service.

Nomination forms and guidelines are available at www.amvhof.org.

Tickets to the induction banquet may be purchased by calling (888) 329-3845. Those who call that number should leave their telephone numbers and indicate the number of tickets needed.
