Citation (in part)

" You have distinguished yourself on a weekly basis by diligently and cheerfully caring for all aspects of the outgoing mail service for the office. Your work in our office is amazingly only one part of your dual volunteer role for the Coast Guard, in that when you finish assisting our office in the morning, you then move on to help the St. Louis Regional Exam Center Office staff, too. Each Wednesday morning you faithfully demonstrate your work ethic by handling the important task of tracking, organizing, and properly filing records and data impacting nearly 1400 Auxiliary members. Your timely and accurate handling of division and flotilla unit data, personnel identification information, and Patrol Orders keep DIRAUX running smoothly and effectively.  You have proved to be a force multiplier for the Operational Training Officer by your superb work assisting him with property audits of the Personal Protective Equipment and organizing the AF-538 forms associated with each item. Your willingness to be available to tackle any project we assign you allows the staff to stay focused on the many projects demanding their unique skill set. You truly do embody our core values with your dedication to the DIRAUX office; your tremendous efforts enable my staff to better serve every member of the Western Rivers Region Auxiliary.."
