Good article on another VMI grad
This article was in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star. I didn't know Matt well during my time at the Institute, but obviously he has lived up to Stonewall Jackson's quote, "The Institute will be heard from today."

Intro
The title of this blog is Latin for "By help from on high." It refers to my job as a US Marine Joint Terminal Attack Controller. A JTAC is someone who is trained to provide terminal control of aircraft while performing Close Air Support. So I quite literally provide "help from on high", by requesting and controlling air support.
This blog was created as a way to keep family and friends updated on what I'm doing in Iraq. I will be deploying on or about May 9th. Since my unit left in late February, I am expecting to return around late September or early October. Stay tuned. ¶ Thursday, April 20, 2006 0 comments
