"I had the honor of serving as Nico's Platoon Leader while he was a Non-Commissioned Officer. He was always reliable, always got the job done, and always motivated his Soldiers to be the best they could be. I was lucky to have Nico on my team stateside and deployed - we were able to accomplish our missions because of him."

"Nico Reid was my team leader and squad leader in the army. He was my leader while here in the states, overseas, and a combat zone. If there was 2 things I could say that I admired about him was that he had fearless and precise decision making and his fairness towards all soldiers was what I admired the most, something that I still strive to attain. I could keep going but those especially were the most impressive to me as a soldier and even now as a civilian "

"Nico shows professionalism in every aspect of his life. "
