Staff, Madrid, Spain.
"There is no CommSta anywhere
that I'd rather command than Nav-
CommSta Iceland," CAPT May said.
"The main reason is that our basic
mission here is so important for the
overall defense of the West and in
that sense this is where the action
is.
"En route to Iceland I was
briefed at COMNAVTELCOM Headquarters
and CAMSLANT. At both places the
CommSta enjoys a solid professional
reputation as an organization that
gets the job done," he remarked.
CAPT May concluded by saying, "I
feel privileged to be able to com-
mand such a fine organization, and
I am confident that with the support
of the officers, crew and their
families we will be able to embel-
lish this reputation even more.
"My wife and I are really looking
forward to becoming acquainted with
Iceland and the Icelanders. Many of
our friends have been stationed here
in the past and all of them enjoyed
their tours," CAPT May concluded.
