Pvt. Troy Sandberg, 22

Clearwater, Florida

“My Family members that served before me influenced me to serve. I also wanted to change my life around for the better.”
“I imagined Basic Combat Training to be one of the most difficult things I’ve done. It turned out to be one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.”
“The most challenging part of BCT was having so many different people from various walks of life and trying to work together and become a team.” 
“My MOS is 15U - CH-47 Helicopter Repairer. I chose this MOS because I’ve always liked working on cars and motorcycles. I’ve always been interested in helicopters and my father was in the 101st Airborne Division in the Army, so hearing his stories about the helicopters pushed me towards this MOS.”
