Fayetteville, North Carolina

“My son and fiancé influenced me to join the Army. My father and grandfather also influenced me because they both served in the Army.”

“I imagined Basic Combat Training would be fun, but challenging.”

“The most challenging part of BCT was adjusting to a new environment and being physically and mentally prepared for the Army.”

“My MOS is 91B - Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic. I chose this MOS because my father was also one and it’s a profession I can utilize in the civilian world.”
