Bill Soliz on June 6, 2024, at Red Hill Clinic, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Honolulu, Hawaii, for providing medical support following a November 2021 jet fuel release that exposed members of the community to contaminated water. Nankivil serves as the primary corpsman at the front desk and has played a pivotal role in greeting, checking in patients, providing direct care with Red Hill Clinic providers. The Cocoa Beach, Florida, native said, “I feel that I helped quell a lot of anxieties especially with nonactive-duty patients, in relation to the Red Hill water situation. I am happy to calm anxious patients and to educate patients in relation to the situation and health effects.” Soliz is the director of Defense Health Network Indo-Pacific.
