We’re still Soldiers first … In the field, you have that more intimate experience of embracing the suck together. We wear the same uniform and bleed the same color.” DiBernardo provided real-world medical care to Soldiers during annual training at a Combat Support Training Exercise (CSTX) at Fort Hunter Liggett, California, throughout the month of July 2018. In his civilian capacity, DiBernardo is a physician at an urgent care medical center near Los Angeles, California.
