Summary
Strongest skill would be the ability to adapt and overcome even in the most difficult situations. I have had experience in navigating terrain through the mud while live rounds were shot over my head, to arming a 40 pound cratering charge properly in a safe manner, to closing several sales deals on the spot or completing multiple projects in an unrealistic timeline to meet company deadlines. I am a fast learner and a hard worker for any organization that I am employed with.
