Navy Mutual Awards MILMO's Lacey Langford with the 2026 Lieutenant Timothy Dix Bolles Excellency in Education Award

ARLINGTON, Va., Oct. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Navy Mutual Aid Association ("Navy Mutual") is proud to announce that Lacey Langford, AFC®, MQFP®, founder of MILMO® and MilMoneyCon, has been awarded the Lieutenant Timothy Dix Bolles Excellency in Education Award.

"As not only a veteran and a military spouse, but someone who grew up in an Army family, Lacey understands firsthand the financial questions and challenges military families can face," said Michelle Ramos Domingue, Vice President and General Counsel. "That perspective gives her a unique ability to connect with servicemembers and their families and help make financial education more practical and accessible. We have enjoyed building a relationship with Lacey and her team over the years, and we are delighted to recognize her with this well-deserved award."

Langford has spent 15 years educating the military community on financial opportunities and challenges that accompany service and translating her experience as an Air Force veteran and military spouse into thoughtful financial education. Through MILMO®, The MILMO Show, and MilMoneyCon, she has expanded financial literacy and strengthened collaboration across the military-connected community. Navy Mutual's Education team has experienced this impact through attendance and presentations at multiple MilMoneyCon conferences, where financial professionals connect to improve support for the service community.

The Lieutenant Timothy Dix Bolles Excellency in Education Award recognizes an individual who has displayed dedication to fulfilling a core tenet of our mission in educating the military and uniformed services community on matters of financial security. In 1879, Lieutenant Bolles was detailed by the Secretary of the Navy to special duty as the first secretary-treasurer and Chief Operating Officer of Navy Mutual.
