ABOUT GLENN SIERRA
BIOGRAPHY
When I was a boy, I remember wondering what it would be like to be a soldier like
my father. As the years passed, I graduated from college and entered the journalism field writing, editing and shooting news and sports events.
Seeking adventure, I enlisted in the Army as a cameraman with The Combat Pictorial Detachment capturing imagery worldwide for the DoD Visual Information Center Pentagon and the National Archives.
Later, I joined Special Operations as a PsyOps Specialist creating media products for various agencies. To contribute my part in the War on Terror, I reenlisted as a Cavalry Scout and served in Afghanistan and later as a Platoon Sergeant in a Combat Engineer Sapper Company hunting IED’s in Iraq and my last tour of duty as a Public Affairs NCO in Afghanistan.

My only regret during my service, was not being there for my young daughter as a father to reassure her that she was safe, wanted and loved. I hope she will forgive me.
