HUNTSVILLE, Alabama – A Redstone Arsenal Soldier, combat veteran and Wounded Warrior with U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command, reenlisted 30 feet underwater at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center, Huntsville, Alabama, Aug. 31.
U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Michael Brown, currently serving as the aide to USASMDC/ARSTRAT command sergeant major, was introduced to scuba diving as a part of adaptive rehabilitation following the loss of his left leg in 2007 during combat operations in Iraq. He chose the underwater venue of the Space & Rocket Center’s Underwater Astronaut Trainer as a fitting location to marry his two passions, the Army and scuba diving.
