Following a video tribute, LtGen Dimitri Henry, Director for Intelligence, Joint Staff, accepted the Baker Medal of Achievement on behalf of the Stewart family. He began his remarks by noting that LtGen Stewart was more than a mentor to him and countless other Marines, he was "whatever we needed him to be to become the Marine officers we were to become." He noted that LtGen. Stewart "saw our potential and never let us forget that potential." A consistent ally and advocate, he was a man of the highest standard, who served as an example for all. In closing, LtGen Henry noted that Vincent R. Stewart “will always be the mountain” and his legacy of excellence lives on through his philosophy of “do big things, never walk past a problem, and always do right."

Stewart Endowed Intelligence Career Pathways scholarship, which will provide $10,000 for a black or African American undergraduate student studying for a career in the intelligence and national security community, starting in Spring 2024.
