KELLY MORRIS, USAACE PUBLIC AFFAIRS FORT NOVOSEL — One year ago on Independence Day, Pfc. Kayden Z. O’Brick took his sense of patriotism to another level — by raising his right hand to serve.
“I want to serve my country because I’ve seen what my dad’s done. I’m proud of what he’s accomplished,” O’Brick said. “My dad has always been a role model to me. I’ve always looked up to him.” Already qualified on the flight data position, he must qualify on ground control and tower/local control before obtaining his rating.
The intensity of the workload for Air Traffic Control personnel supporting the aviation training mission at Fort Novosel ebbs and flows with three launch and recovery periods per day. Having the ability to multitask is paramount, O’Brick said. Soon after he reported to Lowe, O’Brick volunteered for the USAACE Best Squad competition, a weeklong event testing Soldiers’ physical and mental mettle, and he earned the title of USAACE Soldier of the Year.
“This was my first board I ever went to. I was shaking and stuff—there were higher-ups in there,” he said. “It was a whole team as a board, so it wasn’t just individual, so that was better. At first I was nervous, but you kind of get used to it after a while,” he said.
