Pvt. Mya Cuevas, 18

“I have Family that are in the military and they take pride in it. After having the opportunity to live with them in Hawaii, they convinced me that the Army was what I wanted to do and I’m so grateful they did.” They influenced me to join the Army.
“I think the most challenging part was being Platoon Guide not once, but twice. Having to be patient, but also keeping your platoon in control was a struggle. It was hard but was also a great experience.”
“My MOS is 25U - Signal Support Systems Specialist. I chose this MOS because my Aunt Charity was a 25 series and she is amazing and inspires me the most. She did great in the Army and continues to strive outside of it.”
