Synopsis as published on the index
The Colonel Justice Marion “Jumping Joe” Chambers Award is presented annually to a Marine Corps Reserve company grade officer who best demonstrates the outstanding leadership qualities exemplified by Colonel Chambers during World War II. Colonel Chambers received the Medal of Honor for his action as commander of the 3d Battalion, 25th Marines assault landing team of the 4th Marine Division at Iwo Jima. His citation reads in part, that while “exposed to relentless fire, he reorganized his battle-weary men, inspiring them to heroic efforts by his own valor and leading in an attack on the critical, impregnable high ground.” Colonel Chambers’ actions reflected his strong dedication to his country and beloved Corps. The enclosure is a biographical sketch of Colonel Chambers.
