| Introduction | I have served in The United States Army for over 23 years both on Active Duty and as an Army Reservist. I retired February 27th, 2009. I have held the ranks of Private, Specialist, Sergeant, 2nd Lieutenant, 1st Lieutenant and Captain. Most recently I was deployed to the Iraq war theater of operations from 2006 – 2008 in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, (OIF). My primary duties were as Deputy Chief Theater, Rest and Recuperation Program and as the S1/Adjutant for the Base Support Battalion – North in Kuwait. Among the War Time Service Medals I received included; Global War on Terrorism Service Medal (GWOTSM), Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal (GWOTEM), Armed Forces Reserve Medal with "M" Device (AFRM), National Defense Service Medal (NDSM), Overseas Service Ribbon (OSR) and Army Commendation Medal (ARCOM). My first book is now available for purchase. You may order via Amazon.com in the US or AmazonUK. If you desire to have an autograph copy of my book you must order via this site. I am also available for consulting and lectures on the topic “Deployment for Service Members, what I learned spending 2 years in the Iraq war theater of operations.” |
