BEING PROMOTED TO FIRST SERGEANT WAS ALWAYS A DREAM, BUT NOW IT’S A DREAM REALIZED. AND I’M SO HAPPY THAT I SOUGHT TREATMENT BECAUSE I KNOW THAT IF I HADN’T RECEIVED THAT TREATMENT, THERE’S NO WAY I’D BE A FIRST SERGEANT RIGHT NOW. IT’S A STRONGER THING TO DO TO RECOGNIZE AND SEEK THAT HELP THAN IT IS TO HIDE FROM IT AND SHY AWAY FROM IT.
