Pvt. Coalie Easterwood, 18
Ohatchee, Alabama
“What influenced me to join the Army was my work in the medical field.”
“I imagined Basic Combat Training would be both mentally and physically challenging due to the stress of a new environment and trying to perform to the best of my ability.”
“The most challenging part of BCT was changing my mental state. I had to learn to adapt and overcome every challenge thrown before me no matter how difficult that task may be.”
“My MOS is 68W – Combat Medic Specialist. I chose it because I worked as an Emergency Medical Services technician.”
