As a lower enlisted soldier tasked with one of THE MOST IMPORTANT POSITIONS in the U.S. Army, I was supposed to spend all of my time memorizing the Force Protection manuals and preparing for the yearly warfighter exercises.

   

(The warfighter exercises at the time were the U.S. Armys largest and most important yearly exercises in which the entire force practices in an actual full scale mock war).

  

In 1996, I was also tasked with the extra job position of being the camera operator on the first flight of the Predator UAV system, during the regular Corp level warfighter exercise, at the highest echelon of the U.S Army.

 

This meant, just like the Unit Armorer military specialty, I was also tasked in 1996 with being an expert on the new Predator UAV, Unmanned Ariel Vehicle System.

 

The Predator UAV is still considered to be the most important piece of Military Intelligence gathering equipment on the battlefield today.

 

Wisnovsky, now on top of all of your other extra duties, you are now required to be a Predator UAV operator, (at the Corp level, the highest echelon of the U.S. Army).  I expect you to be the best Predator UAV operator in the U.S. Military, no excuses.

   

Thats three major Military Occupation Specialties (MOS) in less than two years just after contracting the toxoplasmosis parasite: 

 

1.  Counterintelligence Agent  2.  Unit  Armorer   3.  Predator UAV Camera Operator.

At the same time that I was tasked with being a Predator UAV operator, I was also the founding counter-espionage agent and lead investigating counter-espionage agent on an actual espionage investigation. 

(An actual espionage case, all by myself, as an E-3).

 

I was eventually given a declassified medal in 1996 for the actual, real world, espionage investigation.

   

Declassified copies of the medal and the recommendation for the medal are attached to this legal packet.

 

The following excerpt is the declassified write up of the incident:

 

The following information has been taken from an actual U.S. Army espionage case, and was originally classified SECRET.

 

The U.S. Army espionage case was later declassified. 

 

Again, I was eventually given a medal for the now declassified espionage case.  The declassified medal and the recommendation for the medal are attached to this report.

    

The following is a typed copy of the information on the medal certificate, and a typed copy of the recommendation for the medal:
