Pvt. Divine Francis, 19
West Palm Beach, Florida
“I’ve always wanted to be a part of the Army, even though I was born and raised in Nigeria. I’ve always dreamed of being part of a big team.”
“I imagined Basic Combat Training to be competitive. People join the Army from different parts of the world. I try my best to be among the best and disciplined too.”
“The most challenging part of BCT was most of the field exercises. Most of us live up to the Army’s values even when some battle buddies don’t, which puts the entire platoon or company in smoke sessions.”
“My MOS is 13B - Canon Crewmember. I chose this MOS because it was very specific among the ones on my list. I don’t know much about it, but I know I’ll do great.”
