Alexander Kassing was born and raised in Menomonee Falls Wisconsin. At the age of 14 he started working for some small apartment complexes around town landscaping. Upon turning 16 he quickly transitioned to working at Marriott Construction as a laborer working with concrete and masonry during the summer. During the school year he worked at OfficeMax. Very rapidly after graduating high school June 14th 2017 he left for MCRD San Diego on June 18th. After graduation at SOI he was sent to 3rd Battalion 5th Marines where he would spend the next 5 years. Deploying twice on the 11th and 31st MEU as well as being sent down to the border to assist Border Patrol. Over the years he’s had many jobs to include radio operator, drone operator, team leader and squad leader. He was quickly picked and sent to Advanced Infantryman’s Course after his first deployment on the 11th MEU. Where he furthered his knowledge in his job field and becoming a better leader. His goal is to simply make his transition out of the Marine Corps easier in Oct. By saving up as much money before hand as possible. In order to focus on his schooling. So he may pursue his future goals. Which is to become a U.S. Marshal.
