What a day! This whole experience has been an honor and blessing to be part of! Extremely thankful for everyone involved that played a part in making this vision a reality! I may have won the prize, but it isn’t just me who won.
Anyone who had a hand in creating this specialty tool or the innovation project as a whole won. Submitting this idea was never about winning a prize. It was about making the workload easier and more efficient for other maintainers.
It was also about creating a platform for soldiers of all ranks to get their ideas out there and be heard. I’m beyond thankful for this opportunity and for this victory, not just for myself, but for B Co 626 BSB and the 101st.
I hope I laid the foundation for future lower enlisted. Everyone has a voice and it WILL be heard! Get those ideas out there because I have first hand knowledge that they exist! There’s no better time than the present! 
It’s a great day to be a Rakkasan and part of the greatest division in the army!
I’d also like to give a big S/O to the other finalists, all of their innovations were amazing and I’m sure will be implemented at some point or another!
