 This award was donated by P/D/C Edward H. Fetner, Jr., N, as a token of
his appreciation
for the honor of having been allowed to serve eight years as an
officer on the District 26
Bridge. The award recognizes the runner-up to the Commander
of the Year Award. There
always seems to be at least one more squadron
commander who displays the same
qualifications (or nearly so) as the Commander
of the Year. The qualifications for the
Ed Fetner Award are similar to those for
the Commander of the Year.
