\u201cIt feels amazing, and I\u2019m completely honored to earn this award. The Marechaussee is an MP Corps award that honors those who\u2019ve contributed to a regiment, and to be even considered as somebody who\u2019s contributed truly means a lot\u201d, said Budner. \u2018Some people see the MP Corps as just the big establishment at Fort Leonard Wood, but to me the Corps comes from the enlisted, NCO\u2019s and officers who serve in it every single day.\u2019<\/p>\n

Budner has dedicated herself to a career of selfless service and sets an example for others to follow. She has performed with distinction at every turn and continues to seek out opportunities for growth, always striving to do what is best for the Military Police Corps Regiment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
