| Hello.. friends, family and you ? I am from the great Navajo Reservation.. in Arizona.. currently i am in the US Army.. stationed out in South Korea (camp castle).. missing home and just the rez..lol. |
| After getting into some trouble, I relocated to another area and there I focused on school, (determined to graduate), then in my senior year started slaking a little but i made it.. and in 1994 finally I gradutaed from Sinagua High School. Not knowing what else to do, I worked a few jobs (construction, a tutor, and a form of a young community leader, at one time) finally in 1997 I enlisted in the Army . oh.. i mean it took a few years for them to recruite me...lol.. |
| Here is little about myself: I started school in a small Mission School, then after six grade I went to Holbrook Public School.. graduated there from eighth grade. then went onto high school. and somehow got involved with the wrong group of people (as people told me).... ( my best friends) |
| The day before my birthday I left for Fort Leonardwood, MS., I went to basic and AIT( job training) as a combat engineer, little did I know about pounding pickets and mine fields. lol, I got my first duty station in Giessen, Germany, from June 1997 to June 2000 with the 1st armord division, 1st brigade, 16th Engeneer Battalion, (Catomounts) While there i got deployed to Bosnia in 1998, in support of SFOR, spent six months in Camp McGoveron, Bosnia. |
| After my return, i went back to California again and did combat training for my next deployment, Kuwait. We left before our scheduile time, leaving in January 2003. After spending a few months in the desert we finally got orders to go into Iraq, March 20. We kicked ass to Baghdad Airport, April 2. We lost three great soldiers from Bravo Company, Pfc Myers, SSG Holensaid, and SFC Smith. Whom i will never forget any of them, I sit here and shed my tears when i think of you all. May God Bless You. |
| I re-enlisted and got reassigned to the 3ID, 1st Brigade, 11th Engineer Battalion, (Jungle Cats) After coming to Georgia, I left for the National Trainiing center in California and then to Fork Polk for training on my next deployment. Kosovo, May toNovember 2001, Camp Montieth, Kosovo. |
| While in germany I also went to gunnery and Combat menuever traing center (CMTC), Graf and Hohenfels, a total of fives times. ..wow. |
