C/1Lt Curry has been a student at Florida Air Academy, a private college preparatory school for boys age 12-19 (grades 7-12), located in Melbourne, Florida, for four years. C/1Lt Curry has received many achievement awards over the past four years. Acquiring this position is an outstanding achievement. C/1Lt Curry will be in charge of a Squadron of approximately 65-70 cadets. In addition to this position he was also awarded the Air Force Association Outstanding Junior Award. This award is only given to one 11th grader per year. C/1Lt Curry will also attend a Leadership School at MacDill Air Force Base in August.
