        When I walked into USMC Recruiter office on my 17th birthday, I had no idea of my future. Little did I realize I was headed for the fight of my life. But I along with my wife of 46 years, we are making the best of it. You have to keep moving forward. As veterans, we have it pretty dang good. We have appreciated all the benefits the VA offers.
