Operation Provide Comfort I and II
Abstract
As a young Soldier and newlywed, leaving the only home I had known for five years, Fort Bragg for Fulda, Germany. I soon learned that I had far more to learn about the military and myself, than I thought possible. The military overseas is designed to test even the most seasoned Soldier, whether it is training or field exercises. I went from jumping out of aircrafts to the hardest 10 days of my professional career, skimming down a rope underneath an aircraft, Air Assault! I never knew how much I wanted to graduate, until I was standing in front of my peers. Everything we do in our lives, prepares us for the future, and preparing loads to be carried by UH-60s to people, certainly came in handy. Just as peace prevailed through the downfall of the Berlin Wall, and the Cold War was over, trouble was brewing elsewhere. The Persian Gulf War erupted a few years later, and I would be front and center for the after effects of war, on the children and grandparents, and the Soldiers sent to save them.
