Lieutenant Colonel Michael DanielsI started my Army career over 22 years ago as an enlisted infantryman instructing at the Vermont Mountain Warfare School. I went to Officer Candidate School as a Staff Sergeant and have been an Engineer Officer for over 16 years - serving in a variety of positions and locations from Europe, Panama, Korea and a number of stateside posts, most recently in the 3rd Infantry Division (Ft. Benning) where I participated in both OIF-1 and OIF-3. My family and I currently live in North Albany where we enjoy all the outdoor activities Oregon has to offer, as well as helping with the OSU men’s and local high school rugby teams.
