The Society for Canadian Philately
The Canadian Military Mail Study Group Award is presented for the best military exhibit shown at a BNAPEX convention. All competitive military exhibits are eligible to win the award.
In 1994, the Sam Nickle Award for Military Mail was established in honour of the late Sam Nickle, OTB, a former president of BNAPS, winner of two BNAPEX Grand Awards, and Chairman or Co-chairman of two BNAPEX shows held in Calgary. The award was funded by his wife, Rosemary Nickle.
In 2017, the Canadian Military Mail Study Group assumed responsibility for funding the award, and renamed it the Canadian Military Mail Study Group Award.
