Record Text
During the time of 2/11-3/16 Mactavish filled the void of Squad Leader, His Squad Leader being on LOA. Mactavish filled the role of an NCO for an entire month writing 2 squad and fireteam reports, running squad drills, leading his squad with distinctions during FTX, Without having access to AdminCP he went out of his way to figure out those who had TPR’d and made sure attendance was submitted within time. During this time not only did he lead but he prospered where some would falter. Reaching out for help to circumvent restrictions preventing him from doing the duty that was not even expected of him but laid upon him by circumstance. SPC P.Mactavish did all this not as 2IC, not even as an FTL but as a fireteam member in a squad that so vitally needed someone to step up to growing challenges. He was not assigned TL till 3/17. This shows that personal exceptionalism isn’t something hidden behind rank or billet. This award is usually only given to NCOs acting above and beyond but SPC P.Mactavish is not and took it upon himself to be one.
