As Command Sergeant Major (CSM), I have a couple other seniors within the battalion who make my job a lot less stressful than it should be. CSM comes with […]

Pointers! Fall semester has come and gone. I have so much to catch you up on; let’s get started! I was in charge of setting up and running Warrior Challenge during Welcome Week. It was a huge success. We had a rock wall, a HMMWV (High-Mobility Multi-Wheeled Vehicle) pull, a pull-up competition, and a station where […]

This summer I interned at Haven Interiors LTD. in Milwaukee, and I had the time of my life. It was nothing like how the movies make it look.

As much as we all don’t want daily ice cream outings and sitting poolside to end, fall is coming and that can only mean one thing … are you ready for some football? Since all us Wisconsinites are Packers fans of course, I wanted to kick your tailgate dishes and game-day parties off with a […]
