Sergeant First Class (SFC.) Bradford (U.S. Army Retired), a LET 1 Instructor at Central Catholic, served twenty years in the United States Army.  During his military career, he served in several different locations, but primarily he served in Schofield, Hawaii. While serving in Hawaii, he served as a member of 1^st Battalion of the 21^st Infantry, also known as the Gimlets.    He was deployed to locations such as Hawaii, Colorado, Missouri and Germany.  The military affected SFC Bradford’s life tremendously by strengthening him in mind, body and spirit, enhanced his social skills with others,  allowed him to appreciate the United States and the world, and it gave him a chance to interact with different nationalities.  Finally, the brotherhood within the military is stronger than one might think.  SFC Bradford remembers the brotherhood within the military as being rock-solid because everyone had to protect each other’s back and everyone had to depend on each other.  SFC Bradford is still connected with his friends from the Armed Forces even to this day, proving that the brotherhood of the U.S. Army lasts forever.
