Branch of service: Army

This special soldier has done amazing things! She enlisted at the age of 17, then spent her summer at boot camp between her Jr. and Sr. Year of high school. Finished out her Sr. school year not only getting her high school diploma but also her Associates Degree in Business. Graduated at the top of her class at AIT – MOS 88M. She is taking 19 credit hours to finish her bachelor’s degree in 3 semesters. Her dedication to the Ohio Army National Guard has been amazing. She has recruited 2 soldiers so far, worked on extra projects like working at fairs and schools. Her father and I are beyond proud of her. Her Grandpa was a big inspiration for her to join, he was a Navy Seabee. Kylie – THANK YOU for your dedication, service and sacrifice. You are in inspiration to many, and a HERO to me.
