The Radford Star Award recognizes outstanding cadets who have excelled in academics, extracurricular activities, deportment, drill, and seamanship. It is the single highest honor a cadet can receive at the Academy. Cadets qualify for a period of one marking period and are awarded three stars to wear on their uniforms.

The Radford Star Award was established in 1960 and is named for the late Brigadier General Cyrus S. Radford, USMC, who was the first superintendent of Admiral Farragut Academy. In order to qualify for the Radford Star, cadets must receive all A’s, have zero disciplinary issues, volunteer a minimum number of community service hours, have at least their Qualified Boat Handler waterfront qualification and be involved in the AFA community through sports, clubs or drill.
