AKO photo
June 13, 2011
Recently I completed an event in NY where I was asked to do some pull up and push up competitions and things of that nature. The PAO for the BN I was supporting was there obviously taking pictures and things. Come to find out, one of the photos the PAO took was of me doing push ups with some kids and the photo ended up on the AKO homepage. How did I find out about it? An entire slew of people from units I had been to around the Army saw me and decided to say something. The emails and phone calls I got really opened my eyes to how exposed we as soldiers really are. My point is, it's important that we continue to do the right thing at all times because somebody, somewhere is going to learn from your examples. Somebody, somewhere is going to see you and you are going to be the one thing that individual basis his/her opinion of the Army on. As NCOs, Officers and Soldiers, we should always be what right looks like. If you haven't seen the photos you can see me and my battle buddies on Facebook, just search Drill Sergeant Exhibitor Program.
