My name is First Lieutenant Bryce Matson; I'm a Civil Affairs Officer, United States Army Reserve.
I joined the Army Reserve after commissioning as an officer in 2007. I decided to go into the reserve because I got a job in federal law enforcement, working for the Department of Homeland Security, so I decided to take the Army Reserve route.
What I like most about my job is the people I get the chance to work with on a day-to-day basis. In addition to that, it's a public service, trying to keep our country safe. But the comradery built here, also reminds me of my role in the Army Reserve. I love coming to work. It's something new everyday, something interesting, never really know what to expect.
If I'm not working, I'm using the gym or running on the beach or hanging out with my friends, my girlfriend and my family. Family is important to me because it's really made me who I am. The Army and my civilian job definitely shaped me. But my family is what made me who I am. To be the type of person who actually volunteered to join in the first place.
As we depart from home station, our unit is going have to become our own new family, as we leave our families behind here in the states. Going through the same hardships together and really looking out for each other, and having each others back, supporting, encouraging, creating a positive environment, a positive attitudes and then you just have to keep doing that, consistently on a day-to-day basis.
And as time goes along, you have a bond now built with that person that you feel close to them. And we'll have the comradery built. We'll have leadership built. We'll have the teamwork build, we'll be a good solid machine to then take into combat and do our mission.
My civilian job definitely compliments my role in the Army Reserve in several ways. I would say one being tactical decision making, working in the field, encountering citizens on a day-to-day basis. I think also it applies to my job as a civil affairs officer.
What I like most about the Army Reserve is that you can still live where you want to live. You can find a unit near where your civilian job is. The Army Reserve provides training that can help in civilian employment. If you're young and you haven't gone to college it can provide benefits to get you through college while at the same time serving in the Army Reserve.
If you want to challenge yourself, if you want to strive for greater heights, if you want to have a rewarding experience by serving your country, becoming a veteran, doing something that you can be proud of the rest of your life. I would strongly recommend it. The Army Reserve is a good bet, best way to go in my opinion.
