About the Author
David James Boyce
A retired military veteran with over twenty-seven years of service. He enlisted in the U.S. Army in December 1968 before graduating high school. He was adamant about continuing his education because he felt that was one thing he could apply to his life and share with others. After graduating high school, from Saint Louis High School, Honolulu, HI while stationed on his first tour in Korea, Boyce continued his education earning his Associate of Science from Georgia Military College, Georgia, a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Resource Management from Empire State College in New York, and a master’s degree in Education from Trident University, California.
