In her email, Marci mentioned that her son had been decorated for valor, but that stories like his are never reported. I emailed and asked if she and her son would provide me the details of his award. She replied that her son had agreed to let me use his name as long as I wrote nothing disrespectful of the Corps.

Thanks for the ping and for posting this wonderful article, RC!
And thank you for writing it, Lisa! I wish TV news would report on our troops this way so EVERYone could hear about our brave men and women in uniform. Too many depend on TV for their news and miss out on so much, especially the positive reports.

Another one bookmarked for e-mailing. :-)
