"He revamped a servicing kit by procuring a new composite tool kit and redesigned the layout to better serve the flightline maintainers. He performed flawlessly in his extra duties of land mobile radios and Aircraft 21 equipment, earning a 100 percent quality assurance pass rate for the first and second quarter of fiscal 2007.
