The Midwest Garrison is proud to honor troopers who go above and beyond the call of duty on behalf of the Garrison, their fellow troopers, and the community. Troopers are nominated by their fellow Garrison-mates, and votes are cast by the Garrison at large for their choice of the Midwest Garrison Trooper of the Month.

Each honoree receives a keepsake award from the Garrison commander, including a limited "Platinum Edition" Midwest Garrison logo patch on a certificate.

Sometimes, after voting, multiple troopers may be named as "Trooper of the Month" due to the votes resulting in ties. In this case, both troopers are awarded "Trooper of the Month" and a double entry is made in the archives.

Trooper of the Month: August, 2006

John Duffy Trooper ID: 737 Congratulations to John Duffy TK737 as one of two August Trooper of the Month. Duffy worked with 2 Chicago area teachers and the band, The Tossers, to raise money for the JAC-PAT Scholarship Fund. This fund was set up by the teachers to raise money for two students to attend the Illinois Math and Science Academy. Duffy organized taking photos with concert goers and donated to the raffle to help the teachers in exceeding their goal of $4000. Not only will the girls have the necessary tools to help them succeed but money left over for other additional expenses.
