He is one of the smartest people I have had the pleasure of meeting and has a kind soul. He has the drive to accomplish anything he wants in life and his adaptive nature allows him to engage easily and solve problems at a rapid pace. He is graduating from law school soon and is pursuing a career as an attorney for the military. He would make a great addition to any team and his resumé speaks for itself. With countless hours of service to the community it would not be a big step to serve the greatest nation. As an Iraqi Freedom veteran I know what it means to serve and Robert Dittman would quickly become an asset to the armed forces. He is an outspoken individual who takes the time to truly know everyone he comes into contact with, whether it be a fellow student passing him in the halls or a client seeking civil justice. I could go on for a while describing how great he is, but I know your time is valuable. There is only one obstacle that is stopping Robert from becoming a member of the military and, although it is no obstacle for him, the military may view it as such. Robert is blind--and people say he cannot see but I know people that are blind see more than those of us with eyesight. Please do what you can to make sure Robert is accepted into the military. Thank you, Mary Pietrazek "Shoot for the moon Even if you miss You will land amongst the stars"
