Nominated by his wife, Lt. Col. Renae Hilton, his accomplishments include extensive advocacy work on behalf of special-needs families and remarkable dedication to the care of his daughter, who was born with severe medical challenges. He is the first male spouse to win this prestigious award.
Hilton, whose wife is currently based at Joint Base Andrews, was chosen from hundreds of nominees. He is an Air Force Academy graduate and a former Navy officer. With the power of the Military Spouse of the Year organization behind him, Hilton plans to spend his tenure as the 2012 Military Spouse of the Year pushing further with his ongoing efforts to better the lives of military families dealing with medical challenges, caring for wounded warriors and those involved in the military’s Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP).
He currently coordinates a national push for legislation and has spoken before the Congressional Military Family Caucus, numerous congressional delegations and staffers on the Armed Services Committee, HELP Committee, Judiciary Committee and at the White House.
The award was presented by Mrs. Deanie Dempsey, spouse of Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Hilton received praise from the chairman of the award’s title sponsor, Armed Force Insurance, Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Garry L. Parks: "With our nation at war during 11 of the first 12 years of the 21st century, the modern-day military spouse has been an unsung hero who has endured countless deployments while often still maintaining a full-time job, raising children as an occupational-imposed single parent and offering moral support to their deployed spouse," Parks said.
From the pool of nominees, one winner was chosen from each branch of service, including the National Guard for the first time. All six branch winners exemplify the values cherished by the military spouse community: service, sacrifice, love of family and patriotism. The branch winners and their families were honoured at the Washington ceremony and will represent their respective branches throughout the year
