Honoring Our Vets

This week our guest was Staff Sgt Joesph Garcia of the U.S. Army. Sgt. Garcia has served two tours in Iraq and is now stationed in Houston as a recruiter.

He talked about his experiences during his ten years in the Army. And he dealt in dept on the leadership he had found being developed through Army training. He also talked about the things he and his Army buddies did to help build schools and strengthen the Iraqi people to help make them ready to self-govern as a democracy.

Soldiers like Sgt Garcia can most certainly make the rest of us proud, and honored, that they have chosen to serve and protect the United States.
