Kyren Schechinger
Parachute Rigger
Spokane Valley,WA
Summary
From a small town in New Mexico. Graduated High School and immediately left for the army and got stationed in Alaska. Spent the last four years of my life inspecting and repairing parachutes and other life saving equipment to maintain mission readiness and protect the lives of our paratroopers. My Army education consists of a Sling Load Inspector Course (SLICC) and I have been to a Sewing Machine Repair Course at a naval installation in Florida so I have fairly decent mechanical comprehension. Every day at work I strived to do my best and pass down my knowledge of our section to my peers, especially before I left. Drove down here from Anchorage and now I plan on going to college for Nursing this fall quarter.
