Six years later, I find myself deployed in the midst of another

   war.  Only this time, it is to ensure enduring freedom for the

   people of Afghanistan.  Our efforts along with those of the

   Afghani government are being challenged daily by an

   organized movement, namely an insurgency.  I have faith

   though that we (the nation of Afghanistan and coalition

   forces) will prevail.  As for my small part to meet those ends,

   I am on J3 (a joint or multi-service staff) as an aviation plans

   and operations officer.  The intent of this website is to

   provide you a glimpse into the daily lives of service

   members serving in harm’s way – everyday Soldiers,

   Marines, Airmen, and Sailors doing extraordinary things.
