Baton Rouge, La. —— A familial connection to military grew recently when U.S. Army Recruiter, Staff Sgt. Jesse Simon, inspired his son Pfc. Jackson Simon into the Army Reserves, enlisting him through the Baton Rouge Company’s Airline/Bluebonnet Recruiting Station––located at 10330 Airline Highway.
Jackson Simon, 19, is in the Army Reserves with the Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) of 92F Fueler—and still maintains a civilian career as a Baton Rouge Fire Department Firefighter.
Typically, Army Reservist gather once a month and a separate two-week period out-of-the year for drill duty, leaving ample time in their professional and personal lives for dual careers.
“I wanted to do something bigger than myself, and I did not want to sit around with a normal job,” Jackson Simon said. (Photo credit: Pfc. Jackson Simon)
