Why I Serve: Sgt. 1st Class Cason

Sgt. 1st Class Myra Cason, with the 79th Theater Sustainment Command, reflects on why she serves in the U.S. Army. "The reason I first joined the military was because I wanted to be a part of an organization larger than myself. I wanted to give back in some way, and I felt that was the best way. I continue to serve because I love the job; I love the organization, and that's why I serve." - Sgt. 1st Class Myra Cason
