Joe joined the Army in 2000, halfway through his Senior Year of High School. He completed his boot camp training at Fort Sill, In Lawton, OK. He then went on to Fort Bliss, in El Paso, TX for his advanced training in which he graduated as Honor Grad. He stayed at Fort Bliss until news of 9-11 hit In which he soon had orders to deploy overseas in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Once Baghdad was secure, his unit prepared to return back to the states. Due to the needs of the government, he was stop- lossed. After fulfilling his full term, he was Honorably Discharged.
Since then he has worked In many Industries. He is honored to be able to use his military and civilian experience to serve his local community with JDog. Nothing makes him prouder than to offer a home to his fellow Veterans.
