About The Author

I am a former US Army Sergeant with 12 years of active duty as both an Infantryman and as a Light Wheel Vehicle Mechanic. I was medically discharged in March of 2006 due to non-combat injuries I recieved while serving in Iraq from 2004-2005 (Special thanks to all those who helped me wade through the VA med disability process) .

Since then I have worked in Iraq for a company that provides vehicle maintenance for the armed services over in Iraq and I currently work for the DoD in a unique program where we bill the private inusrance that retirees may have (i.e. their employer based insurance like Aetna or Blue Cross). This helps recoup some of the costs that are associated with military retire healthcare as well as provides a supplement to the Military Hospital that helps out our wounded warriors. It also helps out retirees as it covers their deductible without any additional cost to them.

I started this blog as a way to get my thoughts out there and to get the word out there about issues that the MSM wont.

I am a father of four and have been happily married for 15 years now.
