Roger Pilgrim and Scott Brady have tendered their resignation from the MD88 ACP positions. They have been long time members of DVA and have been an important part of the MD88 program. We appreciate their contribution over the last year. We will miss their input on staff and wish them all the best! Please join me in thanking Roger and Scott for their contribution to the program.
Taking over as one of the MD88 ACP's is Manuel Hernandez. Manuel formerly served in many roles here including in HR. Please join me also in welcoming Manuel to this position and his return to DVA!
We have another MD88 ACP joining staff with Ronnie who will be announced at a later date. Thank you all who applied for these positions. As usual we always have strong candidates but limited positions.
