Hard work. Retired Navy Reserve Cmdr. Jackie Santisteban is what we in the military call a "hard-charger." As we celebrate a new year and new opportunities, Jackie's grit, determination, and work ethic will inspire you in achieving your own life goals.
Raised on a farm in Minnesota, Jackie wanted to join the military during an era when others were trying to avoid service. She rolled up her sleeves and worked as hard as she could in service to her country.
In this episode of "When Sacrifice Calls," host Lesley Lykins asks how one young woman from a farm in Minnesota summoned the courage and grit to enter military service on the tail end of the Vietnam War and rise to success as a leader, wife, and mother.
