Yeoman Chief, CPO Reanna Oudman

FROM Reanna:

WHAT BROUGHT YOU TO ALC AND WHAT IS YOUR ROLE WITHIN ALC?
I left active duty on the temporary separation program after I had my first son in 2022 and went into the Reserves when we were stationed in Hawaii. To come back onto Active Duty and keep our Co-Location, we chose Elizabeth City since it was a hub that could best keep us together. I am the Yeoman Chief of the Personnel and Administration office where we oversee all pay and administrative transactions and correspondence for our 209 ALC members.

WHAT ARE YOUR JOB RESPONSIBILITIES?
Our shop is responsible for anything pay and administration related for ALC’s active duty and reserve members. I am responsible for auditing most of the work of the YN2’s as well as monitoring upcoming end of enlistments, separations, incoming and outgoing personnel. I assist with additional requests such as rosters and reports, awards, record and pay errors, and approval of PCS travel funds. I am in charge of the body composition program as well as urinalysis testing for military personnel here at ALC.

CAN YOU HIGHLIGHT SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE PROJECTS YOU'VE WORKED ON DURING YOUR TIME HERE?
I enjoy directly working with members on rectifying pay or personnel issues they are having. I love helping people, so being able to bring closure to a pay problem or just providing a listening ear and some guidance to someone at a crossroads in their career or even issues in their personal lives, makes my job worthwhile.

WHAT DO YOU APPRECIATE MOST ABOUT WORKING FOR ALC?
I love how different it is from any other unit I’ve been to. I’ve also never worked with civilians before, but it’s really neat to see how they work hand in hand with our active duty members to make everything run smoothly at such a large and critical unit. Seeing the start to finish process of aircraft maintenance from all over the Coast Guard is awesome!

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE LOOKING TO PURSUE A SIMLAR CAREER PATH?
I joined the Coast Guard expecting to do only 4 years and then get out and go to veterinary school. Here I am 17 years later (and not a veterinarian), but it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I’ve seen so many areas of the world I would never have imagined, plus you’re not going to find camaraderie anywhere else like on active duty. Even if you’re debating just one enlistment, I always say go for it. If you hate it, you’re done in 4 years. If you love it, you’ll make some of the greatest friends who become like family while seeing and doing things that most other people would never experience.

COULD YOU SHARE A FUN OR SURPRISING FACT ABOUT YOURSELF OR WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO MOST OUTSIDE OF WORK?
While being in the Coast Guard stationed on two cutters, I have visited over 20 different countries; my favorite being Senegal. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two crazy boys.

How do you get a Dolphin across the Pacific?
With a little help from Hercules!

MH-65 6538 recently arrived from Air Station Barbers Point, Hawaii, aboard a C-130 and was offloaded at ALC for Planned Depot Maintenance.

It takes coordination across units and airframes to keep the fleet ready!

Rolling in for the ultimate glow-up!

Using a remote-controlled Mototok tug to guide a Navy H-60 into the MRR product line to kick off its conversion into an MH-60T. Precision hangar operations powered by skilled maintainers (with a remote control that makes work feel a little like gaming!).

Aviation Logistics Division Packer, Lenny Luton

FROM Lenny:

WHAT BROUGHT YOU TO ALC AND WHAT IS YOUR ROLE WITHIN ALC?
I came to ALC several years ago after retiring from management at Lowe’s for over 25 years. I started in the warehouse as a contractor and worked my way up quickly utilizing all my experience in Logistics and Inventory/Supply Chain Management. I was fortunate to be able to apply for a civilian position as a Packer and have enjoyed this role.

WHAT ARE YOUR JOB RESPONSIBILITIES?
I currently wear several different hats as I assist with vacant positions in the warehouse. My duties vary daily but I package flight critical parts and shipments for all air stations across the nation and ALC shops. I assist with customs and US ports of entry to clear international cargo for the USCG. I use PRESS for ordering materials and parts for power equipment and help with parts pulling and 265 orders. I train new employees and am frequently called on to drive the truck and trailer, and perform unique forklift moves.

CAN YOU HIGHLIGHT SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE PROJECTS YOU'VE WORKED ON DURING YOUR TIME HERE?
I have been sent on several field trips to different air stations and would say that Kodiak was by far my favorite project. The landscape is breathtaking and seeing all the wildlife was amazing. The job is rewarding knowing we are keeping the parts moving so the product lines and air stations can “Keep’em Flyin”.

WHAT DO YOU APPRECIATE MOST ABOUT WORKING FOR ALC?
I appreciate the people and all the opportunities I have been offered to learn and grow in ALD and IOD.

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE LOOKING TO PURSUE A SIMLAR CAREER PATH?
Supply chain is a solid, future-proof path if you like problem-solving and tracking inventory. Build a strong foundation, always be willing to learn and grow your knowledge in all areas.

COULD YOU SHARE A FUN OR SURPRISING FACT ABOUT YOURSELF OR WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO MOST OUTSIDE OF WORK?
I am huge on volunteer work. My passion is golf and Tarheels on Saturday and Steelers on Sunday.

13,000 test points. 7 miles of wire. 100% certified safety.

The Short Range Recovery MH-65 wiring bay keeps our Dolphin fleet mission-ready! Two of our talented Aircraft Electricians spend 10 hours hand-attaching 1,100 cable connections to the DIT-MCO 2500 analyzer, respectfully nicknamed "Medusa." Medusa zaps the system with up to 500 volts to test 13,000 continuity, resistance, isolation, and insulation points, resulting in an average of just 20 to 30 minor discrepancies—an incredible testament to their precision.

Once cleared, the system is fully certified and ready for the next phase, all in just 4 days!

Huge shoutout to the incredible team at the Blast/Stripping Shop (121)!

Operating as a well-oiled machine day and night, this skilled 20-person crew is a vital force behind ALC's operational readiness. They meticulously blast, strip, and clean the hulls and flight controls of USCG aircraft including MH-60s, MH-65s, HC-144s, HC-27s, and HC-130s, getting them prepped during their heavy overhauls.

Handling complex chemical processes and demanding timelines, this powerhouse team processes around three helicopter hulls a month while simultaneously keeping critical parts moving for every product line.

Thank you to the dedicated supervisors, work leaders, and talented workers on both shifts for tackling the tough jobs and keeping our Coast Guard fleet flying safely!

We Will Never Forget.

Today, the Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center pauses to honor and remember the 2,977 lives lost on September 11, 2001. We pay tribute to the brave first responders, service members, and ordinary citizens who answered the call with extraordinary courage.

As we reflect on this solemn day, the ALC workforce remains steadfast in our commitment to supporting the mission, defending our nation, and serving with honor, respect, and devotion to duty.

Inventory Manager, Makayla Ellenburg

FROM Makayla:

WHAT BROUGHT YOU TO ALC AND WHAT IS YOUR ROLE WITHIN ALC?
I was drawn to the Aviation Logistics Center by its strong reputation and presence in Elizabeth City. The opportunity to contribute to an organization that plays such a vital part in ensuring the safety and readiness of Coast Guard assets was very appealing to me. I have always sought purpose in my career. As an Inventory Manager for the HC-144 aircraft, my job allows me to contribute to a mission that is greater than myself, and I take pride in knowing that my efforts provide service to my country.

WHAT ARE YOUR JOB RESPONSIBILITIES?
As an Inventory Manager for the HC-144 aircraft, I am responsible for overseeing and maintaining accurate stock levels of parts and supplies, coordinating with various teams such as engineering and contracting to ensure requirement compliance and timely procurements/deliveries, and facilitating the distribution of critical components required at air stations operating HC-144 assets.

CAN YOU HIGHLIGHT SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE PROJECTS YOU'VE WORKED ON DURING YOUR TIME HERE?
Addressing challenges such as quality concerns at repair facilities, vendor communications, logistical anomalies, and parts obsolescence has enabled me to continually expand my skill set throughout my career. One of the highlights has been identifying innovative ways to enhance collaboration and productivity between government and contractor. Additionally, managing the continuous upgrades of aircraft parts is a significant and continuous project in its own right to ensure our assets are equipped with the most advanced and up-to-date technology available.

WHAT DO YOU APPRECIATE MOST ABOUT WORKING FOR ALC?
I appreciate the willingness of everyone to collaborate to meet a shared goal. Every department plays an equally vital role in ALC’s mission—from contracting and supply to engineers and mechanics. Not every organization has the privilege of working within a well-oiled machine like ALC. Not to mention, watching these aircraft take off each day serves as a powerful reminder for why we do what we do.

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE LOOKING TO PURSUE A SIMLAR CAREER PATH?
Find what you’re good at and excel in it. It may take a minute to figure it out, but once you do, the job becomes less of a job. I have been provided with so much guidance from my peers and supervisors during my time at ALC, and I can truly say I would not be where I am today without it. That being said.. ask the questions, lean on those who have the experience that you don’t, and use the guidance that you receive to support others who will come to you with those same questions in the future.

COULD YOU SHARE A FUN OR SURPRISING FACT ABOUT YOURSELF OR WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO MOST OUTSIDE OF WORK?
I recently learned that I LOVE to travel. Nowhere is too far and experiences are priceless. Thankful my career allows for me to do so.
