Jayendra Patel is a culinary specialist in the Army and is used to feeding his fellow soldiers. However, back in March this year, having found himself in lockdown in India, Spc. Patel’s skills were put to use in a unique way.

Patel joined the Kentucky Army National Guard to serve others. He takes his role very seriously and described it to Guard News, saying: “Making sure my brothers and sisters have the proper nourishment their bodies and minds need is a way for me to serve others so we can all serve our country.”
