My name is Jose Lemus, i was born and raised in Watsonville, California. I graduated WHS in june 2002 and two weeks after my graduation i was on a one way flight to Goergia (basic training). For some reason i decided to join the U.S Army my senior year in HS(before 911). I enlisted with the 82nd Airborne Division and eventually did 3 combat tours, 2 to iraq and one to afghanistan. As an infintry man, i never imagined jumping out of a perfectly flown aircraft for a living, let me tell you, it was an experience of a life time, have many good and bad memories. Its amazing how fast you mature when you have bullets and bombs flying over head but if it wasnt for my enlistment i would not be where i am today.
After my contract was over, i did not waste any time and that same day i got on a plane and headed back to California. I enrolled at Carbrillo College in fall of 2007 and havnt looked back ever since. I am on my last year at cabrillo and hopefully i will be recieving my AS in Engineering.
