Captain Moulton served in the US Army for over 25 years on both Active Duty and Reserve status. He began his career in 1992 by enlisting in the Infantry and advanced from the rank of Private to Sergeant First Class (Infantry Platoon Sergeant) before commissioning as an officer.

 He lived abroad in Germany on Active Duty for five years serving with the 1st Battalion 6th Infantry Regiment "Regulars by God" (3rd Infantry Division) and the 1st Battalion 16th Infantry Regiment "Iron Rangers" (1st Infantry Division) respectively before returning home and continuing service with the Army Reserve.
