Antonio Doss is the Director of the Washington Metropolitan Area District Office of the SBA and presided over the ceremony. "We are delighted to honor such a distinguished group of awardees today," he said. He laughed and continued, "In particular, we note a distinct Navy theme in the room." (3 of the 6 District award-winners were retired from the Navy.)
