His distinguished military career includes commanding the 1457th Engineer Combat Battalion during the initial ground invasion of Iraq (2003–2004) and serving in Europe during the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989. His leadership experience offers powerful insight into service, resilience, and vision.
