Manassas, VA – On Aug. 3, Six Didlake custodial employees were recognized by Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Chief Financial Officer J. Anthony Poleo for their hard work, dedication, loyalty and commitment to their jobs at DLA. Poleo, who is also chair of the AbilityOne commission, said it was necessary to let the employees know that they are why the AbilityOne program is important. “The program is here to serve those folks and to help them develop themselves. I wanted to let them know that somebody recognizes that they do a good job every day.”

The employees recognized were Curtis Brown, Terry Gilmore, Ismael Ventura, Aimaree Watcharie, Jamar Wright, and Alex Yarnof. Poleo presented each employee with an AbilityOne coin as a token of the program’s appreciation.

Didlake President and CEO Rex Parr said it was an honor for Didlake to have been part of the DLA team for 12 years. “We are thrilled that six of our employees are being recognized for their hard work,” Parr added.
