Read the Spring issue of The Oakleaf
The Spring issue of The Oakleaf is available online now! This issue is all about you--our Members! Starting with the cover, we shine the spotlight on Members who work hard to serve our Community and share the value of the Supply Corps with the public. Heritage Committee Volunteer LT Pamela Velez is a terrific example of the dedication of our Members--her story is on page 7. Also featured on the cover page is new Board Member CAPT (ret) Eddie Fishburne. We get to know Eddie and four other new Board Members on page 12. Plus, in our lead cover story, we catch up with Scholarship Recipient Rachel Beanland, who is now an accomplished novelist!
On page 5, we say thanks to our beloved Spouse Representative Gracie Dziewiatkowski for five years of dedicated service to the Foundation. On page 11, we celebrate NSCS's December 2021 Navy Supply Corps Foundation Leadership Award winners, ENS Nicholas Lenover and LT Joshua Todd. Don't forget to read the updates from our Transition and Recognition Committee Chairs, including a reminder to submit 2021 Chapter-of-the-Year and Volunteer-of-the-Year nominations by April 1st. And, if you've missed our social media posts, just click away on page 15 to get caught up on the latest Community news! Of course, a highlight of every issue is RADM (ret) Dan McKinnon's Sea Stories. Starting on page 16, Admiral McKinnon tells the story, "I did my best work as a Lieutenant".
