“It is a great honor to receive this award,” Bradley said.  “This award is a result of the efforts of a fantastic team that I work day-to-day with in N42.”
 
 Pavlicek shared similar excitement for his award announcement.  He serves as CNATTU Keesler’s field learning standards officer.
 
“My approach (to the job) is with high self-esteem, confidence and gratitude for the command,” Pavlicek said.  “I have always enjoyed being part of this team.”
  
A ‘team player’ approach was also Robinson’s emotional reaction to winning CNATT’s Junior Civilian of the Year category.  Robinson serves as a military manpower analyst in CNATT’s Total Force directorate.
  
“It’s a good feeling to know that you’re being appreciated for your part in the working being done on a daily basis,” Robinson said.
  
In all, CNATT leadership further stated that the competition was ‘fierce’ in each category and also thanked all CNATT directors and supervisors for their submissions.
