凭证:
I graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point as a member of the Class of 2006 with a degree in Military 历史. I have served in the Regular Army 和 the Army National Guard with combat deployments to the War in Iraq 和 the War in Afghanistan as well as military operations in the Australian Outback 和 South Pacific as well as the Republic of Mongolia. 我用了911后的G.I. Bill to earn my Masters in Secondary Education from the University of Alaska in 2017.
As a professional military officer 和 West Point graduate I discovered 费什伯恩 as an adult not far from my hometown of Port Republic, VA. Being one of the oldest 和 most traditional of the American military prep schools, I was drawn to the legacy 和 lore to be found here. No other school in the United States can boast 99 years of being a JROTC Honor Unit with Distinction 和 a 19th Century founding (1879) in the mold of West Point (1802) 和 VMI (1839). This school prepares young American boys to become leading American men with the honor 和 discipline of centuries past.
爱好:
我收集古董, 副本, 和 reproduction firearms from the 18th 和 19th Centuries 和 I love shooting all of them. I am highly active in Living 历史 和 Reenactment circles including: single action cowboy shooting, the War Between the States, the War of the Revolution, 和 the Colonial Era of American 历史. For these reasons, Virginia is the place for me. I also enjoy reading about history 和 tactics in my spare time 和 teaching this Living American 历史 whenever possible. I have been involved in the Boy Scouts of America for 26 years earning the Eagle Scout Medal, Outst和ing Eagle Scout Medal, 和 Heroism Medal among others. Recently I got involved in the Civil Air Patrol as a new hobby. I am happy to be the father of many children whom I homeschool with my wife. My family is deeply involved in our church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 和 have been all over the world.
