As Deputy Port Services Manager, Chief Petty Officer Woodward has made an exceptional effort to meet challenges. One, being unprecedented port operations in 2021 and was personally cited by Commanding Officers of visiting ships. Additionally, submarines for being instrumental in quickly returning them to sea and operational readiness.
