I am a member of the US Army. My intent is to help improve US Army related articles to better help my fellow soldiers and the public understand the topic being talked about toe ensure a clearer and more objective understanding the US Army.

Primary focus in the near term will be deep research on US Army and Federal medals and ribbons to give a better understanding of how they are awarded and the history behind them.
