2LT Schroeder!

On Monday, I was officially commissioned (sworn in) into the United States Army as a 2nd Lieutenant! I was selected as a Health Professions Scholar, and this program will pay for my entire medical education along with all associated costs! I will be inactive throughout med school, residency and fellowship. Upon completion of my medical training, I will enter into active duty for four years as a military physician. I then will have the option of doing a military career, or enter civilian service. I am really excited about the opportunities that the Army will provide and for the opportunity I have to serve my country. I will have my officer basic course (basic training) in June in San Antonio!
