Duncan D. Hunter never thought he would follow in his father (presidential candidate Duncan Hunter)’s political footsteps. He hadn’t planned on joining the Marines either. But 9/11 changed America and Hunter’s life dramatically.

Today, he is serving his third combat tour -- the first two in Iraq -- in Afghanistan. And his wife is campaigning as his surrogate for San Diego, California’s 52nd Congressional District, the seat Hunter’s father now holds, including the cities of Alpine and La Mesa.

Hunter’s wife Margaret stepped in to carry the campaign on after he was called from the reserves to go overseas.
