Naval Force Division Chief USMTM-KSA

A son of an Eritrean Luthran Pastor who never went out on a date until softmore in college, gained courage and confidence at Officer Candidate School, to ask a beautiful woman to marry him. In 2022, when the navy asked her to help me, she goes; “ the navy got us on a buy one get one free deal, haha.”….LoL in 20 years, she made me a father of 4 and captain select in the finest navy in the world.

You can’t see it in the photo, but she was holding my legs as if we were on a roller coaster 🎢 ready to take off. She told the 6 professionals behind the laptop 💻 screen that she have no idea. about the program she signing up for. An official with a beautiful voice then assured her…” Rahel, you are the right person for this program.” she let go of my legs….after the interview…she goes…”sweet heart…I had no idea your job was this serious ..” she was proud and scared at the same time…I will stop here because 2022 was a year of an emotional roller coaster 🎢…

Tek, you have an amazing story and you are truly what success looks like! Congratulations on your selection to Captain! It is hard to believe we were in OCS together 22 years ago. If you ever make it back to the DC area, I would love to meet your wife and children. I hope you are teaching them all of your Michael Jackson moves!
