\u201cIt is a true honor to be nominated by Bradley. We are so proud of him and grateful for the many who serve our nation through their military service,\u201d says Bratz.<\/p>\n

\u201cPaul Bratz and Linetec have provided outstanding support and cooperation, and have exhibited a patriotic spirit recognized with this award,\u201d emphasizes Mike Williams, chairman of the Wisconsin Committee for ESGR. \u201cThe Patriot Award is only presented to employers who not only hire Guard and Reserve members, but also demonstrate superior support to military employees and their families. The National Guard and Reserve forces are the cornerstone of our national defense. They perform an increasing number of unique missions that require extraordinary actions on the part of everyday citizens.\u201d<\/p>\n

The U.S. National Guard and Reserve currently includes 1.3 million members. As of March 2015, the number of Guard and Reserve component personnel on active duty totaled 23,871.
