    Default Widow of Marine Enlists

    WOW. This girl has...uh...guts.

    She'll likely have to lose a bit of weight - but HOOAH! to her. Her mom, though, needs to let go and support her Daughter's decision.


    War made her a widow. But after burying her Marine husband, Melissa Garvin decided to follow in his footsteps to the place where he died.

    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Maybe she can get a little revenge while she's there.
    When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.

    You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.

    HOOAH! is Army. OOH-RAH! is Marine. Gotta keep you Army-dog types on your toes.

    Not unless she freelances. Women are still not allowed in combat arms MOSs in the Corps.

    Doesn't much matter in a war without frontlines if you ever leave a safe base.

    Everyone overthere had a chance of getting in the middle of combat though.
