ABout me

Hi my name is Mario Hernandez Im 22 years old, I came to the New York City at the age of one. I was discharged from the Army under honerable conditions after completing my active duty time. I served in Operation Iraqi Freedom with the 3rd infantry division/3rd brigade for fifteen months.Being in Iraq was a whole mess of feelings and experiences for myself. It was the hardest and most challenging time in my life to date but overall I value it as a great experience and I do not regret it. Given the choice I would do it over again because I met some of the greatest human beings this nation has to offer.Im majoring in liberal arts to get my gpa up to get into the Rn program. Its a great feeling to be back in a civilian classroom enviroment and have basic freedoms ii had taken for granted. I find myself having mixed feelings because I miss my buddies in the military and returning to New york city wasn't as grand because people I knew are either gone or are no longer the same person. Its a new beggining for me in a sense.
