    Commander recognizes Contracting Division members

    Memphis District Commander Col. Zachary Miller (center) recently presented Anthony Lee (left) and TiJuana Harris (right) with Commander’s Coins for excellence. Col. Miller credited Harris with bringing a 30-day Contracting 090 class to Memphis that enabled many to meet a mandatory training requirement. He thanked Lee for being a significant supporter by making all the necessary facility arrangements for the class. In addition, Col. Miller praised Harris for being instrumental in the Contracting Division receiving a green rating in several critical categories, including contract closeouts and Government Purchase Card delinquencies. The colonel also credited Lee, as Contracting Division collateral safety officer, with turning around the division’s safety program, bringing it into compliance and garnering great feedback from USACE assessors.
