Over the last few months, so many people poured their time and effort into my transition, so I thought the best thing I could do is try to capture all the wisdom they provided me. For veterans looking to move into big law, I hope it helps! @ABAesq

For those that have navigated the Reserves (IMA), I'd love to chat.
And for my civilian friends in the NatSec/Cybersecurity/Tech Legal world or Think-Tank world, I would love to chat as I progress to the next chapter.
Well, it is official: my last day on active duty will be 7 January 2025, starting my terminal leave in November 2024. It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve on active duty as U.S. Marine. Fortunately, I'll be able to continue to wear the EGA in the Reserves. /1
Great surprise in the mail today! Always rewarding to see your piece in print after months of work. Thank you @OhioStateTechLJ!

In our student spotlight is Steven Arango, a @USMC JAG who serves as a Deputy Staff Judge Advocate for Training and Education Command at Marine Corps Base Quantico (MCBQ). Prior to this role, he served as a prosecutor at MCBQ. See his recent scholarship in the comments below!
NSI Visiting Fellow Capt. @StevenJArango published an article in the @NatlSecLJon the current problems for the Marine Corps Command-Directed Investigations (CDI). In this piece, Arango argues that CDI lacks appropriate training for investigations, and because of this, investigations that can have life-changing ramifications for men and women in uniform are flawed. Steven Arango concludes by including recommendations to address these problems.

This past week I declined career designation in the Marine Corps. What does that mean? It means I chose to end my active duty career in 2025. There are several reasons why I made this decision but none more important than it was the right decision for my family.
I have zero idea what is next after the Marine Corps—but that is what is so exciting. And regardless of what I do next, I look forward to continue serving our amazing Nation in the Reserves. /end
It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve as an active duty Marine and follow in my grandfather’s footsteps. I still have a little while to go and look forward to finishing up my active duty career at an amazing command and with an amazing team.
