NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Bill Mixon, CEO of National Seating & Mobility, has been named a recipient of the U.S. Department of Defense’s Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) Patriot Award. “I am honored,” he said. “As a veteran, it is of the utmost importance that NSM is committed to supporting those who serve this country. The freedom and opportunities we have are possible because of the sacrifices our service members have made in the past and make every day.” The Patriot Award honors individual supervisors who have directly supported service members and their families through actions like allowing flexible schedules, providing time off prior to and after deployment, caring for families and granting leaves of absence if needed. Supervisors must be nominated by an employee serving in the Guard or Reserve or the spouse of a Guard or Reserve member. Mixon credits his service as an officer and helicopter pilot in the U.S. Army for his leadership skills, approach and philosophy.
