Louie Reyna
Class of 1992
Marine Corps, 15 Years
Left for recruit training 4 days after H.S. graduation. My senior class went to Cancun and I went to bootcamp! Decided to stay in and make a career of it...especially since the Marine Corps continues to pay for my education. I completed my undergrad work at San Diego State Univiersity and received an MBA from the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA. I plan on retiring from the Corps sometime after 2012. I'm currently enjoying the rank of Captain. Semper Fidelis!
