Clint Lorance

An Infantry Officer in the US Army's 82nd Airborne Division, Clint Lorance currently holds the rank of Lieutenant. Since 2003, Lorance has served the United States Army as a Paratrooper within the Airborne community. In this role, he oversees training programs that prepare Army Paratroopers to perform combat duties in deployments around the world. Clint Lorance himself has been stationed far from his Texas hometown: between 2003 and 2005, he served in Korea. In addition to his role coordinating training, Lorance served for seven years as a Military Police Staff Sergeant.

Following several years on active duty in the Army, Clint Lorance enrolled at the University of North Texas. In 2010, two years after beginning his studies, he earned a Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences in Public Affairs and Community Service. Considering this field of study, it is perhaps no wonder that Lorance devoted time during his college years to the American Red Cross's Disaster Action Team.

In addition to pursuing his academic degree and related volunteer work while at North Texas, Clint Lorance joined the Phi Alpha Delta Pre-Law Fraternity and maintained an active presence with the Army, holding the position of Reserve Officers' Training Corps Cadet Battalion Commander. This leadership role aligns with work he did while enrolled at Bland High School in Merit Texas. As a high school student, Lorance maintained membership on the Chapter Leadership Conducting Team, the Dairy Judging Team, and the Soil Judging Team.

Clint Lorance's accolades during his military career include being named 8th US Army Non-Commissioned Officer of the Year, Non-Commissioned Officer of the Quarter, and a Sergeant Audie Murphy Candidate, among others. In his leisure time, Lorance enjoys running and lifting weights. He has completed the Bataan Memorial Death March marathon as well as a number of other races.
