MG John R. O'Connor (left), Commanding General of the 21st Theater Sustainment Command, presented the 2012 ABA Legal Assistance for Military Personnel (LAMP) Distinguished Service Award to Joerg C. Moddelmog, Senior German Attorney-Advisor at the Kaiserslautern Legal Services Center on 15 August.  This marked the first time this coveted award has ever been presented to a foreign attorney.  In a ceremony that underscored the important role Host Nation Attorney-Advisors play in mission accomplishment, Mr. Moddelmog was recognized for his extraordinary work ethic, his prodigious publishing of preventive law handouts and articles, his highly effective teaching and mentoring, and his exemplary efforts to protect American service members and DoD civilian employees from host nation taxation of their salaries.
