charge of Hampton Roads Detachment.

"I am sincerely honored and privileged to have received this award while working alongside and supporting the men and women of our military as a civil servant,” said Bataglio.
Bataglio has worked for SSC Atlantic as an information technology specialist for over 6 years. He holds a bachelor’s degree in arts from Montclair State University and is currently pursuing a Masters of Information Technology degree at Virginia Tech.
Bataglio received the award in lieu of demonstrating outstanding leadership, unmatched dedication, and strong passion in support of improving data validity and system integrity for SPAWARSYSCEN Atlantic’s transition from material and inventory management legacy software to the Navy Enterprise Resource Planning Program.
