“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.”
“Now that we’ve destroyed the U.S.’s remaining chemical weapon stockpile, I’m excited to be part of the effort to turn over the BGCAPP footprint back to the Army so that it can be used in the continuation of the depot’s mission.”
“I enjoy the fact that our team’s daily efforts, ensuring MINICAMS are in proper working configuration, directly help and support the overall mission and ensure the safety of everyone working here and the folks that live nearby.”
“We grew to be a family from all different walks of life … I will never forget my one-of-a-kind work experience. It was a great run!”
“We are completing the mission, closing the plant, shipping the waste, safely as a team.”
“I have found great joy in being a part of history, something that is larger than myself. . . I will share this historic experience with my grandchildren, recounting how I and so many others played a role in making the world a better place.”
“We kept our promise to destroy
the chemical weapons, despite the challenges we faced along the way.”
“After 32 years in chem demil, I am amazed to finally see it all coming to an end. Even though we have eliminated all the chemical weapons, there is still so much to do in order to return the PCAPP site back to what it was before we started.”
“The vision was created and articulated, and we passionately owned the vision and relentlessly drove it to completion.”
