Coming from the small town of Superior, Wisconsin, he had no clue what he was getting into. Security, safety, homely comfort, regular visits with family and friends- he was used to these luxuries.

My soldier is my protector. He is my Dad. He joined the military in August of 1998 and has been serving for our country ever since.
