Operation Troop Aid (OTA), a nonprofit organization which supports deployed U.S. troops, will honor Hank Williams Jr. with the 2013 Operation Troop Aid “Patriot Award.” The presentation will take place on December 31, when Williams headlines Nashville’s New Year’ Eve ‘Bash on Broadway’.

“I am extremely honored to award Hank Williams Jr the 2013 Patriot Award. His art, legacy of family and Spirit of Patriotism is exactly why this award exists. He never forgot his roots and why we have the Freedom we do in America,” says OTA founder and executive director Mark Woods.

Williams will join past Patriot Award recipients Toby Keith, Darryl Worley, Aaron Tippin, Gary Sinise, Charlie Daniels, Mark Wills, and KISS.
