The following testimonials are from Rick's community work and Motivational Magic programs:

 

It has been my privilege to serve as the Commanding Officer for Rick as we have organized and submitted for your consideration for the Gold Congressional Award in review of the work he has done for his community.  He has shown himself to be a very straight-forward, dedicated young man whose activities and achievements have been commendable and noteworthy. The awesome amount of work Lance Corporal Saldan has done in service to his community presents a clear picture of what type of individual he is.  He has freely given of his time, energy and talents to all kinds of people; from the needy elderly to convicts, from terminally ill patients to runaways.  He has strengthened and edified the lives of many. Truly, if anybody fits the bill of the self-motivated and dedicated individual that the Gold Congressional Award seems designed for, it is Rick.
