I have served three tours in Iraq, and three in Afghanistan, for a combination of over three years in overseas service. It has been the distinct honor of my life to serve with some of the greatest individuals and units in our armed forces – and those whom have worn or wear the uniform will continue to have my respect.

My hope is that by promoting my views and information here, it will inform as many as possible to formulate their own opinions and began asking serious questions.
