I Did Not Serve in a Combat Area But, I Did Earn All of My Ribbons and Awards.

I am an American Soldier.
I am a Warrior and a member of a team.
I serve the people of the United States, and live the Army Values.
I will always place the mission first.
I will never accept defeat.
I will never quit.
I will never leave a fallen comrade.
I am disciplined, physically and mentally tough, trained and proficient in my warrior tasks and drills.
I always maintain my arms, my equipment and myself.
I am an expert and I am a professional.
I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy, the enemies of the United States of America in close combat.
I am a guardian of freedom and the American way of life.
I am an American Soldier.

However, I Did Not Serve in any Combat Area But, I Did Earn All of My Ribbons and Awards and retired after 21 years of service.

So, how does a non-combat soldier serve?  Please visit:
