My name is Jinger Jarrett. I joined the U.S. Army when I was 18 years old. I served from 1982 to 1986 and earned two different occupational specialties when I was on active duty: (32F) - Fixed Ciphony Repair and (71L) Administrative Specialist.
When I went to permanent party, I was sent to Germany and served at Grafenwoehr from April 1984 to August 1985. Then I was sent to the headquarters detachment until I got out in 1986.
In 1991, I joined the Michigan Army National Guard and worked as an administrative specialist in the 1460th Transportation Company in Midland, MI. Because I was attending college at the time studying journalism, I had the chance to become a (46Q) print military journalist, and I worked in the headquarters building at Camp Grayling. I was part of MTC. The Department of Defense awarded me the print military journalism MOS because of my degree. During this time I also passed the board and became a sergeant (E5).
When my position as a print military journalist was phased out, I transferred to facilities engineers and became their work order clerk until I got out in 1998.
A lot has happened since then. I became a mother right after I got out of the Army. After divorcing my veteran husband I had married while in the Army, I raised three beautiful daughters and now have nine grandchildren. (7 are living.)
I started an online business in 2001 and have worked in all types of positions as well as writing my own digital products and selling my services online. Helping my fellow veterans is important to me, so I started Military Veterans Worldwide to connect veterans from across the world. We seem to have the same problems, and I want to help as many veterans as I can no matter where they are.
