Commack resident brings insight, experience, and vision to the Board.
Jason Halloren, former Deputy Commandant of the United States Military Academy at West Point, and a Commack resident, has been nominated to the board of The Museum of American Armor, whose extensive collection of historic military vehicles pays tribute to those Americans who have served to protect our freedoms.
“Mr. Halloren’s extraordinary military credentials, coupled with his passion for preserving our nation’s heritage, make him an important part of the Armor Museum’s future,” stated Lawrence Kadish, president and founder of the museum.
“The Museum of American Armor is a national treasure,” Mr. Halloren said. “Its collection of operational armor breathes life into every history lesson that instructs visitors on the courage, sacrifice, and valor of those who have worn our nation’s military uniform. I am truly honored to be welcomed to its board and to provide whatever assistance I can to ensure its future remains as vibrant and innovative as the past ten years since it first opened its doors.”
During his tour as Deputy Commandant at West Point, Mr. Halloren’s responsibilities were centered on the character and leadership development training of over 4400 cadets, future officers of the U.S. Army. He was also involved in meeting the academy’s various infrastructure needs, staffing, and fiscal responsibilities.
Michael D. Sapraicone, the Armor Museum’s Senior Trustee, stated, “We are honored and fortunate to have Jason join the Armor Museum’s board. He brings a wealth of experience in many of the key operational aspects of our institution as well as his recognition that, at the end of the day, we are an important educational destination for thousands of students across the region.”
Prior to his role at West Point, Mr. Halloren was Chief Executive Officer (Brigade Commander), 5th ROTC Brigade, United States Army Cadet Command (USACC) at Fort Sam Houston, Texas.
