Captain Kel Gleason is an Intelligence Officer in the United States Army. He has a bachelor's
degree in radio/television communications and has completed work toward a Masters degree
in telecommunications at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. Before entering the
Army, Gleason worked as a production assistant for CBC (Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation) Radio.
Gleason was commissioned in the Army in 1996 and immediately posted to Germany for
three years. While posted there, he was a platoon leader and a battalion staff officer for
intelligence and security. During that same period, he was also assigned to Bosnia in
conjunction with the peacekeeping operation there.
Born in Murphysboro, Illinois, Gleason and his family moved to Fredericton, New Brunswick,
Canada, where he lived until he completed high school. After graduation, Gleason moved
back to the United States and has been based here ever since.
On visits home, Gleason enjoys camping, fishing, and kayaking with his dad, a retired
professor. In addition, he is avidly interested in his South American Indian (Quechuan)
heritage, particularly its history, art, and cuisine. He loves to cook, having learned his culinary
skills from his Peruvian mother, who teaches gourmet cooking in the family home. Gleason's
hobbies include weightlifting, running, rollerblading, snorkeling, photography, and skiing.
Currently single, Gleason recently relocated to Fort Hood, Texas.
