Which Branch of service are you connected to and which State?

Army. Maryland was the last place.

How are you connected? What years?

Army brat. 1979-1994.

Best Tour of Duty location? Why?

Maryland. Weirdly enough I liked the area and my uncle was stationed there with my cousins who I’m really close to. I didn’t hear many people who grew up with extended family members nearby.

How do you answer the question: “Where do you come from?”

I’m from all over, but consider my home to be my current place.

Where do you call “home” and why?

I believe Maryland will always be my forever home, but San Antonio is starting to be. I finished school in San Antonio, TX, started my career there, met my partner here (also a military brat), and his family and my family are here.

Thank you, Min, for sharing your story!
