Bio:
My name is Mac Way and I am 29 years old. I have been in the army for 11 years as a 63H(Track Vehicle Repairer). I have been a SGT for 8 years now due to my MOS being phased out by DA. I have been married to my beautiful wife Beki for 7 year now and I have 2 children and one on the way. Hayden(6), Trini(3), and Gabi(my newest edition). During my time of service in the army I have deployed three times to Iraq. First with the 4th ID in 2003 I went to Baqubah just 3 hours north of Baghdad. Second with the 4th ID again in Baghdad in the worst place there near Sadir City in a small FOB of Rustimyah(Rocketmyah). And finally with the 1st CD(2-12 CAV Reg.)in the southern town of Nasiriyah. I will be leaving the army so that I can stay home and help raise my kids and watch them grow. I joined the 7th Cav on the 6th day of Jul in hope of finding a way to further develop myself in the leadership and help other people become better leaders and Americans.  LIVE THE LEGEND! GARY OWEN!!
