    U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 Mathew D. Macias, a rotary wing aviator assigned to 3rd Combat Aviation Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division, is a Fort Campbell, Kentucky, native who was born to a Mexican and Tigua family and raised in Bakersfield, California. Macias graduated from Highland High School and enlisted in the Army one month afterward. He was previously stationed at Fort Drum, New York, and deployed to Bagram, Afghanistan, in support of Operation Enduring Freedom where he met his wife Rachel Macias. Marcias is a UH-60 Black Hawk pilot for 3rd CAB and said that he will continue being a pilot because it is the most fulfilling and exciting career choice he made in the Army. “Between classes during my sophomore year at Highland High, I heard a low rumble as a formation of Black Hawks passed overhead. Time stood still in that moment and I immediately realized what I had been born to do.”
