Sergeant Carter Recruiting

They say if you’re not first… you’re last!!

386 years & counting of serving our communities, states and our country 🇺🇸

Today is a bitter sweet day…

After a little over 15 years of service I say goodbye to the Kentucky Army National Guard, and while my service to this amazing country continues in a new organization I will never forget the people I have met, the memories I have made, and the places I have went this far…

From the brand new PV2 who deployed straight to Afghanistan 4 days after AIT graduation to the SSG who made history as the first production recruiter to graduate from the USADSA in the state to now being a SFC & expert badge recruiter 🇺🇸

I couldn’t possibly tag everyone that has impacted me over these years, but you all know who you are & I can never thank you all enough! Through the good, the bad, && the ugly y’all had my back! I wouldn’t not be half the woman, Soldier, & Senior NCO I am today if it wasn’t for each and everyone of you!

She did it y’all!!

Please help me congratulate PFC Renee Smothers on officially earning the title Soldier!

The journey to this moment did not come easy as she faced several obstacles, but she overcame everyone of them, and I know this is just the beginning for her!
