Hello, I am SFC William D. Howell a Career Management NCO for Human Resources personnel and I work at the Adjutant General School in the Proponent/Leader Development Division (P/LDD).

I’ve been in the Army for 15 years. I enlisted into the Army in 1994 and have been stationed at five different duty stations. I have served as a Human Resources Specialist, Human Resources Sergeant, Battalion Senior Human Resources Sergeant, and Brigade Chief Human Resources Sergeant. My last unit was the 1st Cavalry Division at Fort Hood, Texas where I was deployed to Iraq twice. 

I am married to the love of my life and we have a daughter and two sons. I was born in Staten Island, NY although I grew up mostly in Oklahoma. My father was in the Coast Guard so we move around a little. I have two brothers (one older and one younger), a half brother (deceased), a step sister (deceased) and a step brother. I am a graduate of Oklahoma Junior College (now closed) and am currently working on my BA from Touro University. I was selected for promotion to Master Sergeant last October and am awaiting to pin on.

I am now working in the Proponent/Leader Development Division at the AG School at Fort Jackson, SC. I attended the Manpower and Force Management course (ASI A3) since we also deal with the Human Resources Structure. We are responsible for the development of all Human Resources Personnel. I enjoy my job very much and would not trade it for anything else. I will be blogging about my experiences in the Army and my life while in the Army.
