He led the charge ensuring the company was set up for success in the 2019 CENTCOM deployment and has been a wonderful mentor and leader everyday. The company will greatly miss him and wish him the absolute best!

Whenever our Soldiers complete maintenance on our aircraft he will be the first one to fly that aircraft and verify everything is operational. His hard work and dedication everyday is one of the many reasons the Black Knights are so great!
