Adam went through 8 months of schooling,
4 in Florida and 4 in North Carolina,
to learn what it is he does today.
Here he is, hard at work!
*~Devil Dawgs~*
Adam went to school with Freddy,
Edgar and Nick at
Manor High School. Since, they
have remained close
friends. We always try and
get to get together when we
go back home, if they happen to
take leave when we do.
Perciful is a friend that Adam met
in Pensacola, FL,
while in MOS. Perciful has
been stationed with us at
Cherry Point, & Miramar.
He just left for Okinawa
Japan for a year. We wish
him well, and no doubt
we will see ya in a year!
My Marine Husband...
Adam being in the Marine Corps has been exciting
& full of
lifestyle changes. We've gone from living
in Autin, TX, to
Cherry Point, NC, & now San Diego, CA.
The hardest thing
for me would have to be when Adam left for
boot camp. We
hadn't ever endured a separtion that long.
I was 4 months
pregnant when he left & took care of our
11 month old son.
By the time we saw Adam again, he had
a walking & much
heavier son, 7 month pregnant wife (ha!).
I know there
are only more experiences to come & learn
from. It has
shown us the strengths in our marriage, to
depend on one
another for whatever we need (support, enocouragement,
& love). We have made many sacrifies
through our journey
but all is done out of love & respect
for the Corps and our
family. The life we lead is hard and
trying, but it has taught
us a lot about each other and ourselves as
individuals. My
husband serves our country as a brave &
prideful Marine.
He gives me the honor of being a Proud
US Marine Wife!

On
behalf of my husband and I, we would like to
thank
you for letting us share our experiences in the
Marine
Corps with you all. Take Care & God Bless!
Love
Always,
