This is where I am at, and what I've been up to.
I have always wanted to serve my country, and it's now going on 23 years. Luckily, my initial training was in CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear Warfare) defense to ensure the security of this nation. Joining the U.S. Army is one of the best decisions I ever made, as it gave me the opportunity to travel extensively throughout the world including (West and East Europe, Middle East). Finally, after years playing in the mud, ice, snow, heat and bugs decided to go back to school and went to Texas A&M. Ten years almost to the day I returned to California to study at USC (University of Southern California) School of Pharmacy ultimately getting my Pharm. D. (Pharmacy Doctorate) As is (typical of the Army) 15 days after taking my state boards I was once again given orders and sent on another Combat Deployment for Operation Enduring Freedom. Well, I had to put my career on the back burner, but it all came together and returned having completed my mission. The military is not all about war, but to shove down your throat, leadership, leadership, leadership. Also, integrity (do and say what is right), and a can-do-attitude.
New updates,,,, I finally became an officer by Direct Army Commission and act of congress as US Army Pharmacist! (It was about time!)
Just playing Rambo and got paid too
