"To have people take the time to submit my name for a Fan Award means a lot to me. I'm proud of how far I've come, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me next." ### From Army Veteran to Adult Star: A Journey Unlike Any Other Before he ever stepped onto a set, GI Joey served in the United States Army.
