United States Department of Veterans Affairs

The Olin E. Teague Award


The Olin E. Teague Award was established by VA to honor the late Olin E. Teague, whose leadership in Congress as Chairman of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs provided vital support for the agency’s mission of serving America’s veterans. The award recognizes an employee or team within VA whose achievements have been extraordinarily beneficial to the rehabilitation of war-injured veterans.
