Kevin's Story
Life
Fours years at West Point paid off because after that, Airborne School, Ranger School, and an Engineer Course at Fort Leonard Wood, MO, I was rewarded with four years in Hawii! I have been blessed with my beautiful wife, Julie, and we enjoyed our time in Paradise. We headed back to the Midwest from Apr-Oct of 2001 for some more training before moving out to Fort Lewis, WA. We bought our first home and had our first child, our son, Gabriel. After three and a half years in the Pacific Northwest (and a trip to Iraq for Kevin!), we got the opportunity to head to England. After a new baby girl arrived and we spent two years on the East coast at Fort Belvoir, VA, we have finally made it back to the Midwest at Fort Leavenworth, KS. We hope to hear from all of you soon! God bless.
School
Do you remember Walcott Elementary and Junior High in the 80's and then Davenport West High School in the early 1990s? Wow, those were the good ol' days, weren't they? While many of us have gone our separate ways, those early friendships still mean a lot to me! Drop me a line with what you're up to these days and I promise to do the same. Go Panthers & Falcons!
College

le she was on her exchange and then ended up marrying her! What about you? What are your highlights from USMA?
Workplace
I grew up working on the farm back at home in Iowa. The only other thing I've known is four years of college (well, West Point, if that counts!) and then 10 years of service in the U.S. Army. I wonder when I'll actually have to get a job?
