FORWARD OPERATING BASE WAR EAGLE, Iraq – Today's Soldier in Focus is Sgt. Justin Buck, a Wilson, Okla., native, currently working as a targeting non-commissioned officer at Forward Operating Base War Eagle in northeastern Baghdad.
Buck serves in the Fire and Effects Coordination Cell with Headquarters and Headquarters Troop, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Multi-National Division – Baghdad, which is based out of Fort Carson, Colo.
"I'm proud that I have given over three years of my life deployed in service to my country," said Buck, who has served each of those deployments with the Striker Brigade.
During this tour, Buck initiated the War Eagle Running Club – a group that meets once per week to conduct 5K runs around the base in northeast Baghdad.
Upon returning to Colorado, Buck plans to separate from the service and be reunited with his family, parents Coly and Tina Buck, sister, Kendra Adams, and brother, Jordan Buck, before pursuing an English degree at Tulsa University in Oklahoma.
