Announcing the AG Corps Hall of Fame & Distinguished Member of the Corps MOI for 2026

The Adjutant General’s Corps has released the Memorandum of Instruction (MOI) for the 2026 AG Corps Hall of Fame (HOF) and Distinguished Member of the Corps (DMOC) selections.

Purpose

The AG Corps HOF and DMOC programs honor individuals whose significant contributions have left a lasting and positive impact on the Adjutant General’s Corps and the U.S. Army. Inductees are recognized with a permanent display in the AG Corps Hall of Honor at Fort Jackson, South Carolina

Highlights of the MOI

Eligibility: Officers, Warrant Officers, NCOs, Soldiers, and Civilians across all three components may be nominated, provided they meet the established criteria.

Historical HOF Category: Introduced in 2023, this category ensures recognition for AG Soldiers who began service prior to 1 July 1973 or separated prior to 1 March 1991.

Nomination Deadline: All nomination packets must be submitted no later than 15 December 2025.

Submission Requirements: Packets must include a completed nomination form, cover letter, photo, narrative, and up to three endorsements (HOF). DMOC packets include a completed nomination form and a narrative focused on significant contributions.

Standards: Selection is based solely on lasting contributions—not rank or position. Nominees must demonstrate measurable impact that perpetuates the history and traditions of the Corps

Why This Matters

The HOF and DMOC programs not only recognize outstanding service but also preserve the history of our Corps for future generations. Leaders, peers, and colleagues are encouraged to take part in the nomination process to ensure the achievements of deserving members are honored.
