As Women's History Month draws to a close, we would like to recognize all of the incredible women who contribute to the successes of the Vanguard and our country. These women exemplify the Navy core values of honor, courage, and commitment on a daily basis. This past month, HM-14 had the honor of hosting LCDR Karen Thornton, a retired CH-46 pilot, who shared her experiences as a member of the first class of female naval aviatiors at our Women's History Month round table. Thank you to all of the women who have served and continue to serve!

Congratulations to AT3 Shubert and AMAN Hernandez for being recognized as Plane Captain and Plane Captain Trainee for the month of October! Their effort and attention to detail were critical in preparing aircraft for flight each day!
SAILOR IN THE SPOTLIGHT DECEMBER 2021
Name: Kuilan Crespo, Wilbert
Rate/Rank: AZ2
Age: 31
Hometown: Toa Alta, Puerto Rico
High school: Emilio R. Delgado High School Class of 2008
Years in the Navy: 5 years, 3 months
Accomplishments:
AZ2 was critical to the remote deployment of two MH-53E's from Pohang, South Korea to Iwakuni, Japan in support of the multi-national joint exercise 3JA. Petty Officer Kuilan's outstanding technical and professional expertise enabled the processing of 286 hand written Maintenance Action Forms, completion of 29 Special and 15 Conditional inspections, and the tracking of 22 pieces of Aviation flight gear. All efforts resulted in the successful completion of 65 flight hours and the safe movement of three MH-53E aircraft and 70 maintenance/support personnel. Furthermore, upon return AZ2 ensured a 100 percent maintenance back fit and verification of all tracked and timed components.
AZ2 is without a doubt one of the Navy's top AZ's. He prides himself on professionalism, meeting deadlines and crucial attention to detail. Without AZ2s motivation and dedication to his craft, Exercise 3JA would have not been as successful.
