Jacob Garel, a Senior Master Sergeant, began his Air Force journey as a Tactical Air Control Party Airman. He later cross-trained as a Pararescueman and spent his entire career at the Moffett Guard unit, the 129th Rescue Wing. In our conversation with Jacob, he shares valuable insights into the Guard's hiring process, your first year at the unit, and how to prepare for deployment. He guides us through the entire gamut of a full career in the Guard.
However, Jacob's story does not end there. When it was time for him to transition out of the military, he utilized skill bridge and became a marriage/family life counselor. He joins Aaron and Peaches to discuss the entire process of transitioning out of the military and pursuing a career as a counselor.
We extend our immense gratitude to Jacob for enlightening us on all things Guard and the diverse career paths available to those who are ready to take the next step.
