This is a post for the son of a friend of mine. Marshall Info Site
Marshall was married July of last year, and 10 days later was deployed to Iraq. After serving 8 months in Iraq (and having a few of his friends killed in an ambush in Washington Post Article he returned to find out that he had not come home in perfect health
When he got back, he was diagnosed with stage 2 lymphoma and started chemo. He is now set to start daily radiation treatment... and in this hard and trying time, his support system of soldiers that have served with him have been redeployed.
If you are in the Ft Bragg/Fayetteville area, it would be awesome to show this young couple your support and to stand by them. His family lives in Colorado and not able to be with them as much as she would like.
He is struggling with the cancer but also with feeling and his duty to serve his country and fight along side his friends and fellow soldiers
