As blessed as I was to have amazing Soldiers, I’ve been blessed to have incredible peers and comrades to my left and right.
Here’s a picture of some of them carrying me at my wedding, but to be fair they’ve carried me through most of my career.
Leading Soldiers and serving in the US Army has been my pride and honor for the last nearly 2 decades. I am honored that I will be given the opportunity to continue.
