Favorite band: Don't have one. I have very eclectic (or maybe eccentric) taste in music

Favorite thing about working for the Army: There are so many reasons -- patriotism, spirit of service, feeling like what I am doing for a living makes a difference in the life of a Soldier, know that what we do makes a difference in the future of our country, and knowing that I am part of the greatest Army in the world!

What made you want to work for the Army: Ha! I started out in ROTC because they gave me money for college. After the first four years, the Army had really grown on me. I liked the physical challenges, meeting lots of new people, and going places I never dreamed I would see. After 32 years, I guess it is in my blood. This is where I belong.
