Hey Cousin!!
Sorry it took so long to respond. I am having problems
with my home pc due to a
recent Window's upgrade. However, I do have some
pictures of Carlye stored in my
directory at work. Attached are the best ones I could
find. I am also including a little
bit of information about Carlye. By the way, the
picture of the 3 flags is the United
States flag, Wisconsin state flag and the flag of the
Green Bay Packers.
The
32nd military police unit is from Wisconsin and they flew this
flag
over their compound when they arrived in Baghdad. Just a
bunch of "cheese heads in a foreign
land".
Carlye
is 20 years old. She will be 21 on July 31st. She has been in Iraq
for
almost a year and just recently the government extended her tour
another
120 days. Although she was anticipating coming home in the
next
couple of weeks she accepted the extension and is dealing with it
as part
of her duty to her country.
She
currently holds the rank of Specialist in the Wisconsin 32nd
Military Police
unit.
She attended basic training at Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri during the fall of
2001.
While in basic training she excelled in Shooting, Physical Training and earned
the award of "Honor Cadet" upon
graduation. Her plans are to go to college
and had
completed approximately one year of school at the University of Wisconsin-
Milwaukee
when her unit was deployed. Her plans are to transfer to the University of
Wisconsin-Eau
Claire in the fall of this year.
Carlye
grew up in Watertown, Wisconsin and graduated from Watertown High
School
in 2001. In high school and throughout her young life she participated in
athletics.
In fact, she tried out for just about every sport allowed, including a year
on the
wrestling team. You do not tell Carlye she can't do something because
she
will prove you wrong.
She has
an older brother (Andrew) and younger sister (Phoebe). Her parents
are
Juan and Dawn Garcia. Juan holds the position of IPM Coordinator for
Brownberry
Ovens in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin and Dawn is the lead teller for the
Associated
Bank branch in Watertown. Carlye's grandfather on her dad's side was
Juan P.
Garcia of Odem, Texas and her grandmother was Manuela Monclova from
Victoria,
Texas.
If
anyone is interested in contacting Carlye through e-mail, let me know and
I will
ask her if she wants her e-mail address posted.
Let me
know if you would like anymore information.
Thank
you for the wonderful Web site on Carlye.
Juan
