Adam's Story
Life
Well this should be pretty short. After I squeaked through High school, I enlisted in the United States Army. Once there they trained me as an Intelligence geek, sending me to Ft. Jackson, SC and Ft. Huachuca, AZ. After that they made me a paratrooper (meaning I jump out of perfectly good planes) at Ft. Benning, GA. They then sent me to my duty station of Ft. Bragg, NC where I became part of the Military Intelligence Detachment of 3rd Group Special Forces. I was included in Operation Focus Relief which sent me to Abuja, Nigeria for three months.

months Sept. 11th occured and shortly after my return from Nigeria I was sent to Afghanistan as part of Operation Enduring Freedom. I have now been deployed to afghanistan a total of four times totaling to just under 2 years in country. I can't say were I'm at now due to operational concerns, but they tell me I can go home in a month, and then get out of the Army. Future plans are up in the air, due to the fact the army can keep me as long as they need to. But when they do let me out I plan to continue my education in Washington.
