I am more than happy to let you and the rest of Duke ROTC know what I've been up to since I graduated a year ago.
After commissioning, I was sent to Ft. Lewis as a Platoon TAC for a cycle of Advanced Camp. Immediately following my five weeks there, I went to Ft. Eustis in July for Transportation OBC as part of class 6-03. I graduated from TOBC second in my class in mid-November, took a couple weeks leave, and reported to Ft. Carson for my first duty assignment in December. I was assigned to 32d Trans Co (PLS) as PL for 2d Platoon, and I had my boots on ground in Colorado for less than six weeks before we deployed for OIF II. My unit's been stationed in Arifjan, Kuwait since January 29th running ammo and container convoy missions throughout Kuwait and southern Iraq. We've driven all sorts of cargo to deploy/redeploy 1st AD, 1st ID, 2d ID, 3d ACR, 4th ID, 82d ABN, 1st MEU, and many other units supporting OIF 1, 2 and 2.5. We anticipate staying in Kuwait through January 2005. I will have over a year of platoon leader time upon returning to Ft. Carson.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to email. I am also interested in finding-out where others who have commissioned since I was in the program have gone. The pictures were taken on a trip where a couple of soldiers and myself flew to BIAP for a reenlistment. I had the opportunity to reenlist one of our high-speed mechanics in LTG Sanchez' office inside the V Corps Palace in Baghdad's Greene Zone. One picture is of me inside the C-130 before take-off and the other is of the soldier I reenlisted and myself in front of the V Corps Palace. If this isn't what you're looking for, I have plenty of others, so let me know.
Please tell everyone at Duke hello for me,
