I spent 26 years and 2 months in the military, 4 years, 1 month, and 27 day's of that was on inactive reserve status. I served my Country and my Family the best I knew how, that is with 100% dedication to my job and family. I spent 13 years and 22 day's as a Infantry Leader, Recruiter, and Instructor. I spent the other 8 years, 11 months, and 5 day's as a Supply and Logistics Sergeant. There was never a job to big or to complicated for me to complete. I served in the US and overseas. I learned while traveling to not take for granted what we have here in the US, because there are a lot less fortunate people in this world. I will never give less than 100% to my job or my family.
