“I’ve wanted to be a Soldier since I was little, because a Soldier came to my elementary school and showed us night vision goggles and a bunch of other cool stuff.”
“The most enjoyable part of my job is meeting all of the people and Soldiers that we take care of. The experience that comes with the job, learning new things every day, overcoming challenges and just working as a team.”
“My MOS is 68E - Dental Specialist. I chose it because I was in this field before I enlisted and I wanted to continue my career.”
“I’ve been in the Army for almost 10 months. My goal is to stay in, go to school and apply for the Health Professions Scholarship Program to pay for dental school, so I can commission in and continue serving the Army as a dentist.”
