    Fayetteville, North Carolina Area
    As a platoon level fire direction chief I was selected over 60 peers to assist in the development and fielding of the HIMARS weapon system over a 3 year period. During this period I was directly supervising 3 junior enlisted Soldiers and managing the planning and execution of combat simulations, training, and execution of simulated combat operations for the the battle testing phases of the system for 3 launcher sections which included 9 other Soldiers and Non-commissioned officers. With our input and rigorous simulations we were able to identify and help refine the system to what it is today with many of my operational procedures still currently used. During the fielding phase I conducted land to land and air to land operations from simple dry runs to live fire exercises for US senators and Pentagon personnel which led to the approval and integration of this system into the Army's arsenal.
