Scott's Story

Life After graduation, as many of you who might be reading this will know, I joined the United States Army. I went to Infantry Basic, AIT and Airborne School at Ft Benning GA the summer following High School. I was assigned to the 82nd Airborne Division, 2nd Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment. I was there from 1983 to 1989 and participated in a few high adventure vacations; Grenada, Honduras, Panama (twice) and Canada. Canada because they have much better beer than Americans do! In 1989 I got out of the Army and went to Middle Tennessee State University where I majored in Political Science and History, graduating and getting a commission in the Army in 1994 in the Armor Branch. I was then assigned to the 3rd Squadron, 7 Cavalry Regiment, Ft. Stewart GA and following assignments were Ft. Knox KY, the Balkans Campaign where I worked in Germany, Hungary, Croatia, Bosnia and visited several other areas in central Europe. Following the Balkans tour I took command of D Company 1st Battalion 61st Infantry Regiment...Expand for more
(Basic Training), Ft. Jackson SC in 2000 to 2002. Then I took command of C Company, 2nd Battalion, 72nd Armor in the Republic of Korea. I came back to the States to take command of an active duty advisory detachment in East Tennessee where I was deployed to the Middle East, Mississippi and Wisconsin for training missions. Now I am assigned with the 95th Civil Affairs Brigade back at Fort Bragg, NC. Got promoted to Major and finishing a dual Masters program for an MBA anda Masters of Science in International Relations. In the other side of my life, I have married Diane Ward from Tennessee and we have a 1 year old son, Forrest. I am now five years away from retirement, so I am looking at doing those last things I wanted to do in the Army before I get out, namely, getting a command in an Armor or Cavalry Squadron and trying to pull my last tour in Europe. Then, I am thinking I will try to finish up my post-graduate degree work and see about trying to figure out what it is that I really want to be when I grow up!
