Dan
Dan’s military career spanned over 20 years, starting in the late ‘90s. He worked his way up from infantry rifleman to platoon sergeant, endured the relentless grind of being a drill sergeant, and experienced the tedious existence of an observer/controller. His service took him from the uninspiring landscapes of Fort Irwin and Fort Drum to the beer halls of Germany and the beaches of the Dalmatian coast.
Since retiring, Dan has sworn off clean shaving and never takes a hot shower for granted. These days, he enjoys sitting by the fireplace, sipping on fine Scotch, and turning the pages of a real book—because after years of deployment, solitude is a gift.
