Observances From My Careers
Davis will talk about experiences he has had in a multi-faceted career. After serving as a paratroop sergeant (first with the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division, and later with the 12th Special Forces Group of the Army Reserve), he spent 13 years as a smokejumper, then became a volunteer paramedic with overseas medical teams in Liberia (Ebola team), Mosul, Iraq, during the battle there, and more recently, Ukraine. More recently he has become a landscape artist and will display some of his work.
