He is ambitious, displays flexibility and consistently seeks opportunities of increased responsibility. On his own, Petty Officer Blank developed and implemented a Naval Tactical Data System (NTDS) training program for use in qualifying surface console operators. All surface watch standards must complete this training program prior to being certified to operate the consoles. Petty Officer Blank was awarded the Navy Achievement Medal (NAM) for his professionalism and contribution to NTDS operation.Petty Officer Blank's performance has been superb. He is well groomed, soft-spoken and a gentleman who gets along extremely well with all he comes in contact with. He is well respected by seniors and juniors alike and his talents will be sorely missed by his division, the ship and the United States Navy. Petty Officer Blank should excel in any field of his choosing and would be a welcome asset to any business firm."FRANKLIN C. GATES, LieutenantUnited States Navy01 June 1979
