SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENTS

Not one aircraft was ever lost to a maintenance error in any of the units that I
was assigned to during the 30 years.
Numerous subordinates went on to become 1SGs, SGMs, and some even went
to Warrant Officer ranks and I think I helped them along the way, through training
and teaching them to take care of their subordinates.
