a story not of hand-out’s rather concerning a hand-up
his name
Alex Idrache
He grew up in a slum in Haiti, and he tells of how U.S. soldiers were deployed to his neighborhood following the earthquake there several years ago. He says their presence was the first experience of “hope”
he recalls in his childhood.
He remembers looking at his dad and asking him who the people were that were helping. His dad looked at him and said, “They are American soldiers.”
He looked back at his father and said, “One day, I will be an American soldier.”
His father knew the situation in Haiti was unworkable and tried for several years to obtain a visa to come to the United States. After being denied for several years, he was finally granted a spot in Baltimore. He purchased a ticket on a boat for his family and left Haiti.
They arrived and Alex, remembering his dream in the slum several years prior, looked for a way to join the U.S. Army. He found a national guard program that allowed him to join the Army in exchange for citizenship. He didn’t hesitate.
After a series of fortunate occurrences, he was given one of the few spots at West Point for prior enlisted soldiers. Despite his severe lack of formal education, he graduated as an honor graduate (top 5% physically and academically) and the top student in the Physics Department
“At this moment, I was overwhelmed with emotions. Three things came to mind and led to those tears,” 2nd Lt Idrache explained in a comment on Instagram. “The first is where I started … The second is where I am …
The third is my future.”
He went on to become a US Army Blackhawk pilot and was recently chosen to attend
Marine Expeditionary Warfare School
