Walter L.

After high school Walter enlisted in the Army where he served four years’ active duty as a Soldier/Logistics Supply Coordinator. He was stationed at Fort Hood, Texas and in 2001 was deployed to Kuwait as part of "Operation Desert Spring." He was subse-quently deployed to the Iraqi Border to protect Kuwait from invasion of Iraq. During his tour of duty in Iraq Walter served in a position where he had the opportunity to develope many leadership skills. These acquired skills enable him to be able to perform the duties which he strives to perform today. Additionally, his hard work and dedication earned him many awards including Army Achievement Medal, National Defense Ser-vice Medal, Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal, Army Service Ribbon, and NATO Medal.
