Carlos Paz-Sosa)  “I feel a great sense of accomplishment because when I was in boot camp I couldn’t actually finish it,” said Kries. “I couldn’t climb the rope, I struggled climbing over the bar. Now I feel that sense of accomplishment knowing I can actually complete the obstacle course.” Kreis expressed his excitement about his progression throughout his career. From recruit training to now Kreis has proved to himself that he has progressed in physical and mental challenges. Kreis is a native of Virginia.
