GARETT REPPENHAGEN |
I was a US Army Cavalry/Scout (with the 2-63 Armor Battalion) and completed a nine month peace keeping mission in Kosovo and then I served as a Sniper in Baquaba Iraq. I joined IVAW in 2004 while deployed. I was honorably discharged on May 31st 2005 after being involuntarily extended by a ten month Stop-Loss. Since returning from Iraq I have been an advocate for veteran's rights and benefits and served on the Board of Directors for the Iraq Veterans Against the War.
I am an active Warrior Writer. The lyrics of one of my poems, Letter from Iraq, were turned into a song by the punk band, The Bouncing Souls.
