Representatives from business-es and schools of higher learning were avail-able there throughout the day to speak with Soldiers and veterans about their options after leaving the service. ‘Every employer here has opportunities for immediate hiring during the year, simply because they really want to hire veterans,’ said Carolyn Andrews, Soldier for Life transitions services manager. ‘We noticed that some of our Soldiers need additional education, so they’re also able to talk to education institutions here. Some of them are going in different directions. Some are going back to school, while others are going immediately into the workforce. We wanted to be a one-stop shop.’

‘I became a soldier ...’

PVT. BROOKE SMITH, 20Lakeland, Florida

“I’ve always wanted to be a part of something bigger and I knew joining the Army would open a lot of doors to my future and a civilian career. Being from Florida, we get a lot of hurricanes so I joined the National Guard hoping to make a positive impact in my home state.”

“I attended a military high school so I had an idea of how the Army works.”

“The most challenging part of Basic Combat Train-ing was being away from home and knowing everything was still going on, and learning to work as a team with people from all over the U.S. with various personalities and ways of leadership.”

�� “In 10 years I hope to have my masters in prosthetics

with an undergrad in mechanical engineering with my own prosthetic business while still in the National Guard serving my state and country.”

��!��"��#�%��"��&��-ing and eye opening experience. I look forward to what the future holds in my military and civilian career.”

PVT. STEPHEN M. HAMPTON, 26Inwood, New York

“I have a friend who I grew up with that joined the Army. �'��*��+�%��doing the best for himself and his Family which he supports; �%��&%��:'��join the Army.”

“The Army is everything that I thought it would be before joining.”

“The most challenging part of Basic Combat Training was the transition to Soldier from civilian because I spent a majority of my life as a civilian. Thankfully, the drill sergeants did a great job transitioning my company and guiding myself in the right direction.”

“I’m a 91J – Quartermaster and Chemical Equipment Repairer.”

“In 10 years I still see myself as an active member of the United States Military.”

“I believe that basic training is very important part of becoming a Soldier and the drill sergeants that we have in Bravo 2-39th set the bar high. I look forward to con-tinuing my military career for a minimum of 20 years and hope that the Army becomes a tradition in my Family that carries on from generation to generation.”

PFC. KYLIE KANE, 19Hollidaysburg, Penn.

�<%��:'��join the Army was the sense of camaraderie and being a part of something much bigger than myself. My father also had a role in my deci-sion to join with his 22 years of service.”

“Coming from a military Family I already had most of the discipline aspect of the Army down. What I was unprepared for was the early mornings and late nights of continuous work because there was always a task that needed to be completed.”

“The most challenging part of Basic Combat Train-ing was the people, because a few trainees could never catch on. Some days were a continuous struggle to get everyone on the same page.”

“I’m a 92A – M1A1 Abrams Tank System Mechanic.” “In 10 years I see myself with a degree and ranking

up in my military career.”��+��*��=��!��*�%��"��

pretty good. I’ve learned so much from my drill ser-geants and made some good friends. I will apply every-thing I’ve learned here to my everyday life.”

PVT. ANA DEPAZ, 18Star, North Carolina

“My brother is in the Army and I’ve wanted to join since I was little. I wanted to make my Family proud and show friends that anything is pos-sible as well.”

“Yes, the Army is what I thought it would be. My brother told me a lot about the Army and I did my own homework and learned as much as I could about the Army.”

“The most challenging part of Basic Combat Training was getting everyone to work as a team.”

“I’m a 25U – Signal Support.” “In 10 years I see myself in the Army giving it all I got

and becoming a bigger leader.”“I have learned a lot in Basic Combat Training and I

hope to keep learning.”

PVT. FABIAN CHAVIRA, 19El Paso

“During my senior year in high school, my mother had a heart attack and unfortu-nately passed away the day before graduation. With my Mom being my primary care taker, money became short, hospital bills were high and housing was limited. These ��%��#��&%��:'-enced me the most to join the Army.”

“The Army wasn’t what I thought it would be. I thought it would be more individual training and that the drill sergeants were there to yell and train. Now I know that they truly care for all of us and really became our biggest motivation. Some of our drill sergeants became role models for how I want to structure my career.”

��*�%��%��#��+��'#%�weather and stressful conditions, was leaving home at the time that I did. My Mom was the only person who was there for me no matter what, and without her, I felt alone. However, I knew what her expectations were for my future and that pushed me through the hardest times.”

“I’m a 91B – Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic.”

Children under 15 years old descended on Heise Pond on post April 21 looking to reel in the largest catch during the Family, Morale Welfare and Rec-reation’s Youth Fishing Derby. The children and their Families had a blast trying to catch the big one. State fishing licenses and post fishing permits were not required for the youth to fish. Some youngsters even were able to use free loaner poles.

By TIMOTHY J. HALEU.S. Army Reserve Command

U.S. Army Reserve Soldiers, civilians, and Army Reserve Ambassadors marked the 110th anniversary of the U.S. Army Reserve, at the command’s headquarters, April 20 at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

The day started with a birthday celebration run, followed by a brief ceremony and cake-cutting, and then forming 1-1-0 for a group pho-tograph in front of Marshall Hall, the combined headquarters for U.S. Army Forces Command and U.S. Army Reserve Command.

Formed April 23, 1908 as the Medical Reserve Corps, today’s U.S. Army Reserve has evolved into a global operational reserve force, engaged to support America’s active duty forces.

Today’s Army Reserve is the most capable, combat-ready, and lethal federal reserve force in history of our nation, providing trained and ready forces and critical capabilities wherever need-ed, anywhere around the world where the Army needs to initiate, sustain, and prevail in major operations.

Through two World Wars, the Cold War, Korea, Vietnam, the Persian Gulf War, the Global War on Terror and countless crises, operations, and con-tingencies, America’s Army Reserve has never failed to answer the nation’s call.


Madelyn Mercado, head of Fort Jackson’s Army Community Service, praises volunteers during a breakfast held in their honor April 19 as part of the National Volunteer Week. Volunteers help many Fort Jack-son programs such as ACS and Youth Sports.

ThreatsContinued from Page 6

The second lift from the Black Hawks brought in the Charleston County SWAT to clear the building, rescue the hostages, and detain or kill the terrorists. A third lift from the two Black Hawks brought in the last group of Cordell Rangers to fortify security and ensure all buildings in the vicinity were safe and clear of threats.

“Ten years ago, we never would have thought to do a mission like this,” said Sirmon. “But with today’s threats and current environment, it’s impor-tant to train with civilian agencies and get as much exposure to domestic op-erations as possible.”

At the conclusion of the event, once all of the mock hostages were rescued and placed in the protective care of the Charleston County Sheriff’s depart-ment, mock terrorists secured with SWAT at their Armored vehicle, and ��%�� -ing of the grounds, the Black Hawk pilots shook hands with Terese, com-mended the agencies on a great train-ing event, and prepared to vacate the area.

“I grew up as an Army brat so having the chance to help is very important to me. I love giving back to the same kind of com-munity I grew up in.”

“Knowing that my volunteer service is helping me work to-wards my future career is what I find most rewarding. Being able to do something that helps oth-ers and build experience for my-self – while focusing on my chil-dren and our home and allowing my husband to focus on his ca-reer – is amazing.”

“Volunteering for ACS has al-lowed me to branch out and work with a lot of different depart-ments. Every day I learn some-thing new and it is awesome.”

“I love being able to help peo-ple. When people come in or call our front desk, it is such a great feeling to be able to connect them with the right services that will help them. As a volunteer I also get to hand out informa-tion to Families at Basic Combat Training graduation, and even though I’ve been to graduation a bunch of times, their happiness and excitement still gets me ev-ery time. It’s contagious joy.”

STAN HAINESColumbia, South Carolina

Boy Scouts of America

“The Boy Scout motto ‘Do good turn daily’ is what influenced me to become a volunteer.”

“The most rewarding thing about volunteering for me is watching the young people grow and learn morals and ethics.”

Tennis, investment coach

“What influenced me to vol-unteer was my desire to give back and teach others about the game of tennis and the art of in-vesting.”

“Getting positive feedback from people is the most reward-ing thing about volunteering. Hearing folks say that they final-ly get the rule of 72 or dividend, reinvestment, plans / progress when it comes to investing is very rewarding for me.”
