Lee, Virginia he was stationed in Germany. Zachary has served as a cook in Germany for the past 17 months. Zachary was named Cook of the Quarter in March 2013 which required him to be nominated by a superior officer, meet before a board of high ranking officers, a physical fitness test and finally making a a gourmet meal out of an MRE (Meal Ready to Eat). In addition to this great accomplishment Zachary has attained the rank of E-4 specialist in less than 2 years of military service. Zachary will continue to serve our country in Germany until April 2014. A modest young man Zachary would never admit his accomplishments and in the true spirit of a soldier simply believes he is doing his job.
