PO3 Phyllis Maynard 9070094 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>At Naval Base Charleston, SC 1985-1989, I was stationed at Naval Dental Clinic Charleston. I had a friend who went by the nickname Ray. She totally had very little military bearing and drank coffee like using a vacuum cleaner. She decided to drop her Naval Elected Career (NEC). For punishment she was assigned to Oral Surgery/Central Sterilization Room (CSR). That was a serious misadventure. Instead of sulking in her &quot;new dungeon&quot;, she turned the CSR around 180°. She worked on her CSR project before work, after work, , and on weekends. Within six months, she turned that &quot;mess&quot; into a first class CSR to match the Naval Hospital Charleston&#39;s operation. For all of that commitment, she got a certificate from the Command. The Department Head received the Navy Accomodations/Navy Achievement Award, some type of recognition from OSHA, and some other things. It has been forty-two years ago, so those award details are fuzzy. Ray was very ill and she died about twenty years ago, at forty-six years old. She carried the hurt of the sleight all the days of her life. So, if you remember someone who contributed to Command Operations, please tell us about the person. <br /> 2026-02-08T19:42:12-05:00 PO3 Phyllis Maynard 9070094

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>We were an experiment which began with LBJ. The powers that were decided more could be accomplished with less manpower. So our company consisted of 60 heavy weapons infantryman. We would be inserted into an area, complete the mission and leave. I can&#39;t say exactly how it reflects on today&#39;s Army, but I do know the Company status was dropped and remained part of a normal size unit which could operate independently of the main body of troops. In order to achieve success everyone would and did give 100% and that was thanks to the excellent leadership and direction from the commander(s).

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As a 75B, I like to think I contributed. We had an IG inspection and got 0 gigs on the orderly room. As a side note, prior to my playing 3rd base on the US Army softball team, I managed our company softball team and we won the league championship for the first time in camp history. While the trophy should have gone in the day room, our CO took it home and I never saw it again

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>While with JTF-GTMO, I wrote the forced cell extractions SOP for Camp Delta. I also trained the other units working there on it. I received a thank you.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Over my years of service I seen this happen. It is truly sad when someone else gets recognition for something someone else has done!!!<br />I recieved an ARCOM for leadership when I was younger, and as the captain was pinning me he whispered, &quot;don&#39;t worry, your men will receive awards as well&quot;!!! I was not one that didnt included everyone!!!
