Newly-appointed Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Timothy Ruple receives his third class petty officer crow from Lt. Michael Spoke, NSA Souda Bay command chaplain, during a ceremony on Jan. 5 in front of Building 1. Ruple, a native of Spokane, Wash., has been in the Navy for 1 year and 8 months and at NSA Souda Bay for 1 year.
Ruple is a member of American Forces Network Detachment Souda Bay where he is a radio DJ. He said he was not expecting to be a radio broadcaster because at “A” school he was trained on photography, videography and multimedia – not radio.
“I feel like I’ve definitely put in a lot of good work and I feel like it’s paid off and it just makes me want to keep going,” Ruple said. “I’m excited to see what else the Navy has to offer and definitely going to try and make them proud.”
Ruple will depart from NSA Souda Bay for Norfolk, Va., in February 2021, for his next assignment onboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69).
“I’m glad that I actually got the chance to be a radio DJ here in Greece,” said Ruple. “But going on to the Fleet to do what I was actually trained to do – I’m excited to show what I got – show if my training has paid off, or not.”
