In Memoriam John Ochs, former Coast Steering Committee Chair, dedicated his professional life to protecting the American coasts as well as to driving innovation and growth in the international shipping industry. He was a graduate of the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, rising to the rank of Commander over his two decades of service. Upon his retirement in 2002, John became a senior member of the APM Terminals team in Southern California. John represented APM Terminals in many roles at PMA, including Coast Steering Committee Chair during the 2014-2015 negotiations and the 2017 extension negotiations. During his APMT career, he continued to proudly deliver on the service motto learned as a Coast Guard cadet: Semper Paratus – Always Ready. He is survived by his wife, Joyce, and two stepchildren.
