"The responsibilities and obligations required to fulfill this mission are humbling, at times daunting, always rewarding, and never lost on us."

    Lusk is a graduate of North Carolina State University with a bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering and a master's degree in Strategic Studies from the U.S. Army War College. He is married to Deana and they have three children.
