“After graduating from college, I joined the U.S. Navy in 1996 where I proudly served until 2001.
I was assigned to the Aircrewmen “A” School and aircraft mechanic “A” School and was stationed at the Naval Air Station on Whidbey Island, WA. For six months, I had the opportunity to serve aboard the U.S.S. John C. Stennis as an aircraft mechanic and troubleshooter for EA-6B Prowler aircraft. In addition, I served in the Kosovo conflict that took place from 1998 to 1999 between the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY). I was awarded the U.S. Navy’s Air Warfare (AW) Enlisted Aviation Warfare Specialist (EAWS) insignia, which is a military badge that recognizes Navy members who have the skills and experience to serve in aviation activities.
I am a proud veteran, and I will serve this great country again.”
