The Navy’s crisis response to the Red Hill fuel spill on Oahu was unprecedented in its scope, complexity and cost. The crisis impacted thousands of military families and imposed a massive toll on the hundreds of military, civilian, and contractor personnel that participated in the response. "As a senior leader on a joint and multi-agency task force facing a myriad of complex regulatory, technical, logistical and political issues was incomprehensibly challenging and the hardest thing I have done in my 27-year military career."-- Capt. Miguel Dieguez.
