Upon arrival at 3 rd Group, he was sent to a Tactical Equine Course and then deployed to
Afghanistan and put all of his new skills to the test. After several deployments he was then selected to go back to the U. S. Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School to attend the Special Forces Assistant Operations and Intelligence Sergeant Course (18F). Following the completion of the Intelligence course, he spent time in Chicago with 20 th SFG and helped with recruiting for the unit.
