The Army Recruiter Ring is the highest achievement award for recruiting excellence offered by the United States Army Recruiting Command.

The ring, designed by Leonard Trzeciak, a former Recruiting Command employee, is custom-made of yellow gold inset with a green stone to symbolize the Army. Around the stone is cast "U.S. Army - 1775." The Liberty Bell, surrounded by 13 stars, is molded into the right side of the ring, while the left side is embellished with a representation of the Army Recruiting Badge. Laurel leaves surround the ring and enhance the design.

As the recruiter continues to progress successfully after earning the Gold Badge, the gold stars on the badge are exchanged for sapphire stars. When all the gold stars have been replaced by sapphire stars, a recruiter qualifies to earn points toward the Recruiter ring.

The long quest for the ring takes the Army recruiter through eight levels of proficiency that test and prove his or her ability and skill in recruiting. The ring is not easily won; only a small percentage of Army recruiters wear this award.

When an Army recruiter earns the Army Recruiter ring, he or she is forever marked as one of the finest members of the Army's recruiting team.

PASADENA, Calif — U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District Commander Col. Mark Toy joined Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines to celebrate the grand opening of a military career center here Aug. 22.

 

“It’s an example of ‘Building Strong and Taking Care of People,’ which is actually the motto we have in the Los Angeles District,” said Toy. “I chose it because I want everyone to remember that everything we do in the Corps of Engineers, everything we build for our Soldiers, has at its heart the idea that we are taking care of people.”

 

Since 2009, the U.S. Army Recruiting Command has used the term Pinnacle to describe these state-of-the-art facilities and their team approach to recruiting. USAREC sees this re-organization as a way to improve the quality of life for its recruiters. These larger stations consolidate the operations of several offices. This location accommodates the local company command team as well.

 

One of the new tenants, Air Force enlisted accession recruiter Staff Sgt. Kenneth D. Stubbs said, “the new facility is nice and I like the fact that everything is new and functional so it provides for a better work atmosphere.”

 

According to Corps realty specialist Dustin Ku, this center comes in at 8,500 square feet with the Army accounting for just over 4,086 square feet of floor and office space to accommodate its Pinnacle design. The Navy has 2036 sq. ft., also co-locating their area supervisor, the Marines at 1700 sq. ft. and the Air Force at 678 sq. ft.

 

“The District is really proud of our recruiting facilities program,” said Toy. “We administer 269 leases that are worth a total of $31 million. In my mind, it’s money well spent.”
