XML Data in Text Field Issue

Question

LC ES 8.2.1.3
I have a web service that outputs XML data and Designer calls the webservice and the XML data populates a text field.  This works fine.
My problem is getting the data out of the text field to populate different fields in my form.  I have done many searches and have tried many different things but still can't get the data out.  I have made sure my form is dynamic xml.
Here is the last thing I have tried:
-------Begin Code -----------
Placed in testData:Intialize and the connectionSet is placed in Page1:Initialize.
var myXML = XMLData.parse(xmlData.rawValue, false);
var subNames = XMLData.applyXPath(myXML, "//Subordinates/Subordinate/full_name");
if (subNames == null) {
//no data
} else if (subNames.length == null) {
  //not array, just a single value
  topmostSubform.Page2.testData.addItem(subName.value);
  } else {
   for (var i = 0; i < subNames.length; i++) {
    topmostSubform.Page2.testData.addItem(subName.item(i).value);
-------End Code -----------
I have been working on this for 3 days and still can't get it to work.  The closest I have come is output in my testData text field that said "Object23485968".
Thank you in advance for your help

I must be missing something somewhere becuause I couldn't get it to work.  Here is the xml that I am getting back when I invoke the CFC from within Workbench.  This data is assigned to an XML type varialbe called 'xmlOutput'.  I then create a data connection in my form to the service I created in Workbench and bind the return data to a text field (with multiple lines).  When I bind the data I have the option to choose "document" or "element".  Element doesn't return anything, unless I am doing something wrong, so I have to choose Document. 
With the xmlOutput below I do get more than one subordinate returned.  I only showed one for simplicity.

I am really at a loss on how to get this data into my form.
Thanks,
