As a chaplain assistant in the U.S. Army Reserve, Brandon K. Bassett, from Lindon, Utah, personifies the idea of “Twice the Citizen.” One weekend a month, Bassett attends battle training assembly with the 191st Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, Fort Douglas, Utah, supporting soldiers as a member of the Unit Ministry Team.

In addition, the military benefits he receives as a member of the Army Reserve allows Bassett to study computer science at a local university.
