What Inspires Me, Where I Hope to Go

What I Believe

I am of the Jewish faith. I am a fairly observant Jew and associate myself primarily with the conservative/reconstructionist movement. I was Bar Mitzvahed in 1999 (yes if you do the math I was 17 instead of 13: oh well better late then never). I fancy myself a scholar of the Talmud, an ancient Jewish study on the Torah (Jewish Law) that is composed of commentary and anecdotes of the great rabbis.

It is the Jew's constant devotion to helping others that makes military service more then apt to meet our faith's requirement of serving others. (Photo of Israeli Special Forces soldier and young Jewish boy on the holiday Simchat Torah)

He that saves the life of one saves the world entire~ The Talmud

Goals

Like every other cadet here, I want to graduate with high marks in military, physical and athletic areas. I am considering majoring in law or American politics. I plan on branching some kind of combat arms, likely armor, field artillery, or infantry. I'd like to end up one day in SF like my father.

Who is a wise man? One who learns from everyone. There are many ways to G-d and none of them wrong.~The Talmud (adapted)

I have always wanted a family with 2 kids and a dog (yes I know just like Leave it to Beaver .) I hope that G-d will provide me with a good wife and mother of my children.
