A's Davis named Military
Member of the Quarter
Cryptologic Technician (Communications) Sec-
ond Class Petty Officer (CT02) Kelly A. Davis is the
Military Member of the Quarter for the NATO Base.
A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Davis is assigned to
Naval Security Group Activity (NSGA), Keflavik
and has been here since May. She says her job of
sending and receiving messages can be pretty de-
manding in addition to maintaining the circuits the
messages are transmitted on.
Davis says she enjoys her work and does not let
things, like the environment, bother her. “As soon as
I step out that door I’m thinking about what I should
make for dinner. I do not have a stress problem,” she
said. "Who has time for it!"
As far as the actual requirement to stand before the
base's senior enlisted leaders who made up the
membership of the selection board, Davis says she
was nervous but well prepared. “I reviewed every
publication I could get my hands on."
The best advice Davis says she can give anyone
who is nominated in the future is to know about
military customs, all the ranks in the services and
know everything that is going on around you.
Davis reported to Iceland after completing a tour at
4Bul Communications Station Rota, Spain. She has
H her tour in Iceland thus far easier than she an-
Kted. “I can’t believe that six months have

already gone by,” Davis said. She added that the smaller command is much more friendler
than in Rota and that when checking into the commandwith her husband, CTTSN Scott
E. Davis, that the commanding officer, CDR Ronald J. Wojdyla, approached her in the
mail room and said, 'You must be Davis'.”
She and her husband are expecting their first child in May.
