"Lieutenant Yadrick is cited for outstanding achievement as Logistics Officer, Coast Guard Port Security Unit 311from August 2007 to May 2010. Demonstrating exceptional professional competence and inspirational leadership, LT Yadrick was directly responsible for ensuring the 130 PSU 311 reserve component members recalled to support Operation IRAQI FREEDOM from September 2008 to July 2009 were fully equipped, expertly trained and administratively compliant prior to deployment. LT Yadrick diligently managed all operational expenditures of the $2.5 million budget increase from Operation IRAQI FREEDOM. As the sole Active Duty Officer assigned to Port Security 311, LT Yadrick ensured PSU 311 members attained a superior level of readiness and training that led to the unit receiving the highest final evaluation score for any Port Security Unit during the 12-day Final Exercise Program at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. LT Yadrick collaborated with Marine Corps, Air Force, and Army commands regarding logistical preparations resulting in the successful expeditionary deployment of over 18 tons of equipment, 296 weapons, classified material, and 127 personnel. Upon successful demobilization of Port Security Unit 311, LT Yadrick personally insured all 28 medical hold personnel received proper medical attention leading to full recovery and speedy return to full duty. LT Yadrick was selected by the Deployable Operations Group (DOG) to deploy to Port Security Unit 307 during Operation UNIFIED RESPONSE in support of the Haiti relief effort. LT Yadrick's expert assistance in administrative and logistical matters led to the highly successful mobilization and deployment of PSU 307 in less than 96 hours ensuring appropriate force protection arrived in a timely manner to assist critical humanitarian operations. Lieutenant Yadrick's dedication and devotion to duty are most heartily commended and are in the keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Coast Guard"
