Paul honored at PSD

Paul increased the productivity and efficiency of operations at PSD by initiating, reviewing, processing and auditing more than 7,000 personnel and pay entitlements. His auditing skills and attention to detail enabled a 98 percent accuracy and acceptance rate on all entitlements processed.

Having only been in the Navy for five years, this award is an indicator of his outstanding performance and loyal devotion. Receipt of this award is especially noteworthy, as Paul is temporarily assigned to this unit and it is a rarity that squadron personnel are even nominated.

As a member of the PSD team for the past six months, Paul is a section leader directly in charge of six other personnel. His supervisor, Anthony Pennington said, "He has an outstanding work ethic. He's usually the first one here and last to leave. He enthusiastically takes on duties above and beyond those expected of him."

Paul was selected for this award over six other nominees, and will be sorely missed upon transfer. In addition to these awards, he has received two letters of commendation since joining the VP-5 family. To other Sailors, Paul advises, "Don't come to work to win awards. Just come to work and do your best every day and you will be noticed and appreciated."
