Columbus, GA - When trying to achieve a dream or goal, no matter how tough or insurmountable it seems, never giving up is the only way to find success. The most accomplished people are the movers, and shakers, do gooders, and high achievers, who even through crushing circumstances, rise above, continue moving forward and positively impact the world for the better. Alvin Hodges is one such individual. From humble beginnings, after the death of his mother, young Mr. Hodges was raised with five siblings by his beloved aunt and uncle. When he was only a Senior in High school, Mr. Hodges joined the U.S. Army on a Reserve Officer’s Training Corp scholarship leading to his decades long distinguished military career. Mr. Hodges enlisted in the military in 1984 as a lieutenant and was promoted to the rank of captain and major. During his tenure, he was stationed in Fort Benning, Fort Knox, Fort Riley, and Fort Stewart, and overseas in Iraq spending 28 days every month in the field as a tanker. Exceptionally gifted and talented, Mr. Hodges graduated with a Bachelor of Science in history from the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff in 1984, a Master of Science in criminal justice from Troy University in 1989, and Doctor of Philosophy coursework from Walden University. After 25 years of service, due to a shoulder injury, Mr. Hodges retired as a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army. Always making God his highest priority has easily graced Mr. Hodges with countless blessings. By cultivating gratitude and putting the Lord first we will graciously fulfill our purpose and joyfully experience the wonderful life God has planned for us.
