Charlotte Power Squadron Hall of Fame

The Hall of Fame was originated in 1992 by P/C Claud E. Hefner, JN. It honors members who have earned a minimum of twenty-five (25) merit marks. A merit mark is the USPS-wide recognition for the contributions made to USPS. Of all the awards conveyed by the organization, the merit mark is the most prestigious. A merit mark is awarded to a member by the Chief Commander based upon a recommendation by the member’s squadron commander. A member can earn only one merit mark per year. Levels of recognition include Senior Member (5), Life Member (25), and Emeritus Member (50).
