I started my military experience at Ft. Dix N. J. in 1984 as an enlisted soldier in the transportation branch. I eventually decided to join the dark side and graduated from the FNGMA thinking I could do more for our enlisted soldiers as an officer. In 2002, My unit (332nd Transportation Bn.) was activated to the Gulf war while I was in training at Ft. Eustis, VA. Unfortunately, I was left behind due to a back injury while at Ft. Eustis and my career was over. Some great times and missing the camaraderie.
