Jeremy's Story

Life After High School, I went to PSU for 3 yrs in Engineering Major, then dropped out because of burn-out and lack of funding (loans ran out). After that, I moved in with the folks who had moved to Houston,Texas (Dad got a good job with Coca-Cola Foods). Stayed there for a bit, trying to figure out what to do with my life. Joined the Air Force in Dec '93. I figured 4 yrs in, then get out. I was a Munitions Systems Specialist, which means in laymen terms, I built, fixed, tweaked, and handled bombs and missiles of all kinds...including Nukes. Well, to my surprise I found I really enjoyed my work and was VERY good at it. I decided to stay in past my 4 yrs and rose through the enlisted ranks quickly (E-5, Staff Sergeant). I got to be very knowledgable about the various guided missile and bomb systems, and was involved in a few of the newer guided systems being developed. An example are those T.V. guided and laser guided bombs you always see footage on the T.V. about...I helped in their development to make them more accurate and...well, deadly.

the enlisted leadership and the officers over them and came to a conclusion. If I was to stay in and make this a career (20 yrs in, then retire and do something fun) I needed to do something to affect a positive change in the leadership. I had finished my Dual Bachelor's degree in Business Mgmt and in Communications through Univiversity of Maryland, and applied to become an officer. I was commissioned a 2nd Lt on 28 Jun 01, and went to Texas until August, to train as a Contracting Officer. I was married twice now: first for 3 yrs and the second for 2 yrs and had a daughter by the first marriage(12 yrs. old now), and I've been divorced/single now since Apr 07. I have sole custody of my daughter and she lives with me in Virginia.
