Thomas joined the Army in 2014, after graduating high school. Turned 18 in boot camp at Fort Sill, Oklahoma 2014-2015. Thomas’ first duty station was Fort Bliss, El Paso Texas (2015-2017). His first deployment was to Afghanistan (2017-2018). While in Afghanistan, Thomas reenlisted, choosing Vilseck Germany Army Base (2018-2022) as his next duty station. While in Germany, Thomas was promoted to Sergeant and again reenlisted, choosing Fort Lewis, Washington State (2022-2023) as his next duty station. In March 2022, Thomas once again reenlisted (choosing Fort Carson in Colorado as his next duty station) but, before his transfer to Colorado, in October 2022 his unit was deployed to Korea (2022-2023). Thomas has transferred and settled-in at Fort Carson in Colorado (2023-present).

In April 2024, Thomas and his unit deployed overseas to Poland (return date is January 2025). This is Thomas’ 6th deployment. Many thanks to donations from family, friends and coworkers, over the years, I have consistently sent Army care packages for Thomas to share with his unit. Although Thomas’ unit is comprised of the majority being men, there are about 10-12 Brave Women Soldiers!
