Trudy Ward with the Directorate of Human Resources (DHR) was selected as the Fort McCoy Garrison Civilian Employee of the Month for August 2019.
Ward serves as the chief of the Administrative Services Division with DHR. As the division chief, Ward is the official mail manager for the installation, the records manager for the garrison, the publications and forms officer for the garrison, the Freedom of Information Act and Privacy Act officer for the garrison, and contracting oversight representative on three contracts.
She was nominated for the recognition by DHR Director Terry Streeton.
“I nominated her because she is awesome at what she does for us,” Streeton said. “Nearly everyone across the installation knows Trudy and the work she does. She’s very deserving of the recognition.”
Ward received a commander’s coin for excellence from Garrison Commander Col. Hui Chae Kim as well as a certificate of recognition. She received the award Sept. 5 during the Garrison Commander Staff Meeting.
“I was very surprised to receive this recognition and very thankful, as well,” Ward said.
