SGT Valeriano has successfully reclassed from 12N (Horizontal Construction Engineer), passed his audition, and graduated from USASOM. He has also been drilling with the 116th and preparing for USASOM since 2022.

SGT Valeriano is an example for other Soldiers of consistently putting in the practice time and paying of by earning the 42R MOS (Army musician) title!

In the civilian sector, he has used his experience from the Army Corps of Engineers and now works as an Intelligent Traffic Systems Installer. Congrats SGT!🎉🎉
