My name is Patrick, I'm a 20 year old from Oregon and a proud Patriot. I was a college student at Oregon State University but I'm moving down to Medford to get my Associates and then enlist with a 11x option 40 contract. I grew up playing Ice Hockey as a defense man so I could lay down some serious hurt on anyone attempting to make a goal. I also like making the Forwards look good.

I'll be completely honest however. Since my Father is a Retired Army field medic I thought I would jerk his chain a bit and become a Navy SEAL. It was because of this goal that I joined the United States Naval Sea Cadet Corps when I was 10. From then on every summer I would travel around the country training with the Navy and Marines learning about the different MOS. When all was said and done I made the rank of Chief in the program and went to South Korea to train with the ROK and our Korean counterparts.
One thing I learned from all those years was that I didn't want to be onboard a ship for 6 months at a time. So now I have a new goal. I am going to be a Ranger and later on SF. Bold words I know but I'm taking the Initiative to learn everything I can. Which is how I found your Site and forum.
Thanks again for your service and God Bless.
Patrick
