Profiles of Courage

Swords to Plowshares' Profiles of Courage Award is an annual honor given to veterans who have demonstrated extraordinary courage in the face of war and conflict. These veterans have not only faced the physical and psychological challenges of military service, but also the long-term effects of service and post-service life. By acknowledging their courage and resilience, Swords to Plowshares is able to provide veterans with a sense of recognition and appreciation for the sacrifices they have made for their country.
