ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, Md. – A U.S. Army civilian staff logistician at the U.S. military’s premier all hazards command helps to ensure that Soldiers and Army civilians are equipped and ready for mission around the world.
Adam M. Ochylski from the 20th Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosives (CBRNE) Command Logistics Section was selected as the Civilian of the Quarter for the 4th quarter.
Ochylski was recognized for the integration and management of supply, transportation, equipment, maintenance, contract surveillance and other functions.
Headquartered on Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, the 20th CBRNE Command is home to 75 percent of the Active-Duty Army’s Explosives Ordnance Disposal technicians and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear (CBRN) specialists, as well as the 1st Area Medical Laboratory, CBRNE Analytical and Remediation Activity, five Weapons of Mass Destruction Teams and three Nuclear Disablement Teams.
The command logistics section provides global logistics, supply and service operations in support of the Soldiers and Army civilians from the 20th CBRNE Command who deploy from 19 bases and 16 states to tackle the world’s most dangerous hazards in support of joint, interagency and allied operations.
“In the G4, I help to ensure we have the right equipment with the right unit at the right time,” said Ochylski, who was born in Canton, Michigan, and raised in Greenville, South Carolina. “I work internally with units and externally with U.S. Army Forces Command and other enterprise partners as a materiel manager.”
Ochylski joined the U.S. Army after graduating from Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina, and served as a logistics officer for seven years.
Along with serving in uniform with the 82nd Airborne Division, he also previously served with the 20th Support Command (CBRNE) before it was renamed the 20th CBRNE Command.
“The highlight of serving in 20th CBRNE is seeing the growth of the community. It's rewarding to both mentor others and be mentored,” said Ochylski, who plans to continue to challenge himself to accomplish more complex logistical missions.
Lt. Col. Drewry L. Brown, the command senior logistics officer, said Ochylski had contributed to the readiness of the one-of-a-kind command.
“Mr. Ochylski is a true subject matter expert who always seeks solutions for complex logistics challenges, whether current or future,” said Brown, who is from Greenville, South Carolina, and has deployed to Iraq twice and Haiti once. “His technical expertise, analytical proficiency and ability to influence decisions across organizational lines allows him to effect positive outcomes, improving the overall readiness posture of the command. Mr. Ochylski' s ability to teach, coach and mentor both peers and leaders within the command, while exhibiting the highest level of professionalism, is worthy of all Soldiers, civilians and peers to emulate.”
