I'm trying I find topics to post about so I can get past the 5 post probationary period. I feel like such a noob haha. Anyways, here's a little about me for my third post on ECF:
My name is Joey. My 2 best friends call me daddy and my third best friend calls me babe. I love my family and would do anything for then. Te past few years have been incredibly rough but I have my family and that's all I need to smile I guess.
I am am a Soldier in the Indiana Army National Guard. I'm a Field Artillery Section Chief (run operations on a M777 howitzer). I'm a Staff Sergeant. I consider myself a good leader. I do my best to train my soldiers and lead them to success. I was announced the 2014 2/150FA Non-Commissioned Officer of the year. Yes, that is a HUGE accomplishment to me. My soldiers trust me. I've recently been approached by one who was having suicidal thoughts and wanted help. I can't explain how honored I felt to be the one he came to. He's doing better now and he is getting help because I personally set him up with the resources he needed. He is actually no longer under my command due to a promotion an a transfer I reviewed. He approached me on my last day as his Chief. I'm currently trying to take on a full time position with the Indiana Army National Guard. Within the last year, I realized I really was good at it and wanted to do it full time. So wish me luck on this endeavor please
Outside of the army, I am a carpenter for a remodeling company. It is okay for now but it's not what I want to do as a career. My family deserves so much more than what I give them now and I will do whatever it takes to provide them the life I never got. The Army is my ticket for that. I am a recovering opiate addict. I am not ashamed of it. I wasn't getting high. I was attempting to give myself relief after an injury sustained overseas and I got myself in to deep.
Im im gonna leave it at that. I've been trying to post this for two days now. First time I tried, it said I wasn't logged in and I lost the whole post. Happy vaping everyone!
