Hello, my name is Fred Hermstein and I am part of the advertising and public affairs team of the Kansas City Recruiting Battalion. I retired in 2007 serving in the 82nd, 2 ID, AMF(L) in FRG, Korea, and 10 years in USAREC. I enjoyed recruiting and decided to leave corporate America to be part of a great Army Strong Team. Glad to be back and proud to serve again.
