Every Soldier has their reasons for joining the Army, but those reasons aren’t often publicized to the masses. It’s not just about striving to protect the frontlines, it’s about embracing diverse experiences, and gaining the skills and knowledge to transform themselves into the leaders they know they’re capable of becoming.
To help tell those stories, Complex teamed up with the US Army and three Soldiers—Sgt. Anthony Amos, Sgt. Renieal Campbell, and Lt. Col. Beatriz Florez—for our Inside the Unlimited video series. Their respective narratives provide a unique glance into the ways their experiences in uniform have transformed their lives out of uniform, and changed their future for the better. From these inspiring stories, we're sharing seven ways working for the Army can help you unlock your potential and strive towards greatness.
