Bio
My name is Robert L. Garnsey, Jr. I am a retired Special Forces Medical Sergeant (18D), previously with the 1st Special Forces Group at Torii Station in Okinawa, Japan. I currently reside in Okinawa Japan. For the past 18 years, I have studied the Thai language extensively, completing hundreds of hours of Language Study Programs both in the classroom and in a live environment. During my time in the military, I consistently attained the maximum score on reading, listening, and speaking for the US Defense Language Proficiency Test in Thai. Just prior to my retirement, I became certified as Department of Defense Senior Linguist in Thai for reading and speaking through an independently contracted DOD testing agency. During my 15 plus years with the US Army Special Forces, I served as my team's primary Thai interpreter during multiple operations. In addition, I was hand-selected by my Battalion Commander to serve as his personal interpreter during high level meetings with the Royal Thai Special Forces Command Group. During that time, I also conducted several training blocks solely in my target language of Thai in a variety of subjects, the most auspicious of which was a 120 hour Medical Training Evolution for over 240 personnel. Due to my unique operational background and wide range of knowledge in Thai military, medical, and legal terms, I would be an excellent candidate to provide both written and oral translation services. Please get in touch with me if you need any help. I am looking forward to hearing from you!
