"So, how’s the leg today?

Still have it - it has hurt to some degree for the 50 years and about 30 years ago I had a large blood vessel blow out in the wound site - but I still made it through 24 years more of the Marines, including lots and lots of 3 mile runs.

Have to be stubborn, I guess...

Pain is temporary. Pride is forever.

Thank you for your service and sacrifices Marine. Welcome home.
