A non-profit organization for journalists covering the military, national security and homeland defense.
Ready for MRE Awards Season?
It’s Coming Soon!
The Military Reporters & Editors’ prestigious awards contest will open up soon to honor the best-of-the-best journalists out there on the military, defense and national security beats.
Following our contest last year, the board of directors decided to update award categories to reflect the changes in news organizations, how news is disseminated globally, and how news is presented across expanding platforms and mediums.
When we open up our contest at the end of March, we hope you will be pleased to see a variety of new categories representing modern news delivery and more clarification to some existing categories. We will ensure there is plenty of time to select and notify winners well ahead of the awards ceremony at the annual conference in Washington, D.C., in late October.
We are excited about these changes and look forward to a great contest this year. Please let us know if you have any questions.
