I was born in raised in Beirut, Lebanon. I came to the United States on a plane, not a boat, in 1986. I was active army for three years @ fort Huachuca, AZ for about 3 years. I worked in the S-1 shop (administration) and loved every minute of it. I was also in Iraq for a year from 2004-05. I enjoy playing table tennis, tennis, soccer, and football.

I joined ROTC because it offers leadership opportunities, which are beneficial in every way. I have learned some pretty cool things since I’ve been a member of ROTC. I have improved my leadership capabilities while taking on new tasks, such as learning Military tactics and Operation Order formats.

I am a junior nursing student @ the UM-flint campus. I enjoy learning about the human body as I am fascinated by it. After I graduate, hopefully, I will be on my way to PA (physician Assistant) school at Fort Sam, Houston.

CDT Banat Ready for the day's training event!

If you are a nursing student and interested in ROTC or a career in the ARMY I would be more than willing to answer any questions. If I cant answer a question I can absolutely direct you to someone that can.
