Hello everyone. I've worked as a network engineer for the past 4 years and I'm quite satisfied with my path. My brother is 2 years older than me and has already served for 3 years. I've mostly been reading stories trying to visualize how my life would have been like if I had chosen the military straight out of high school like my brother. Nevertheless, I admire the stories here.

Hello my name is Deep Singh, I am 24 years old and I am from California. I am brought up in a Sikh background and am a practicing Sikh with a Turban and uncut hair and beard and currently serve in at 5- 1 CAV ECHO TRP as an 11BRAVO in FT Wainwright AK. I am currently a PV2 and wish to to drop a packet for Special Forces as soon as I hit PFC as it has been my dream and my brothers dream to serve in Special Forces since I was 20 years old and it is also to fulfill my brothers dream as he has passed away 4 years ago. I wanted to fulfill his legacy and mine of serving this great nation of ours and stand against tyranny as this is a Sikh Ethos. Thank you for all the information on the is great website.

Just to the point. Highly motivated person seeking to do something more for my country and have a direct impact on the war on terrorism. Doing everything I can to keep my head in the game. I am nothing special, just a normal guy who enjoys the outdoors, reading, education and self improvement. If anyone has questions about me, feel free to ask.

Names Mark. Currently serving as a 38B Jumpmaster. Looked over the forum and seem like a good place to keep up on current SOF information.

Let me know if anyone has questions or comments on Civil Affairs.

6 years of being a POG (68A) got boring so I got an 18X contract. Just got selected, waiting to start the Q as an 18D.

Hello all,

Thank you for the opportunity to join this unique and highly informative community. I'm 25 -years-old in my last semester of college. I currently have two 25M targets. Graduate, and get in Army shape. I am in the DEP program, with an OCS contract signed and waiting for me. My downrange target is to decide if the officer route is truly for me – which is why I joined the site to help me in my soul search.

Background:
Right out of high school I worked as a mechanic for four years, transitioning from motorcycles to small watercraft. Realized I loved wrenching, but did not want to see myself growing old with my head under a hood or in a hull. Gave education the good-old college try and here I am.

Mahalo,
Beluga

First of all, let me say that it is an honor for me to be on this site/forum, among my dad's brothers-in-arm.

My name is Yvette Benavidez Garcia and I am the proud daughter of Roy P. Benavidez, Medal of Honor Recipient (Vietnam). Chance referred me to your forum (thankfully).

I am looking forward to connecting with a lot of you on here as I know that many of you either knew my dad, or served with him.

Thanks, in advance, for sharing your stories with me about my dad. What an awesome family to be apart of.

With respect,
Yvette
