HELMAND PROVINCE, Afghanistan – Builder 1st Class Brandon B. Audie was named Naval Mobile Construction Battalion 11’s Sailor of the Quarter for the period of January through March of 2012.
The following is an excerpt from Audie’s award citation: [As project supervisor for Detail BOST, he meticulously planned and estimated 1300 man-days of force protection and FOB construction for the 707th advisor team located in Lashkar Gah, Afghanistan. His attention to detail was crucial in identifying construction materials and tool shortfalls that were vital in completing the coordination phase of this highly profiled project.]
“Always put out your best effort in all you do,” said Audie. “There is always room from improvement, no matter where you are in your career.”
Originally from Saco, Maine, Audie has 11 years of active duty service in the Navy. He is currently assigned to NMCB 11 and deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
