Our article is one of the top 5 most e-mailed articles in the last 24 hours on AOL. I think that's pretty big personally. I hope that everyone has taken a moment to think about the men (Jeff, Jerry and Mike) who are doing us all a great service by speaking on our behalves. I know that at times my dad, Jeff, has felt guilty and has not wanted to wear his Marine Corps ring in fear that it might upset his family. I hope he knows that I would be proud of him to wear it. He went through a lot and sacrificed a lot for all of my family. He is what I believe makes a true Marine and I know that he has my utmost respect, as does any other true Marine. In my eyes he has always done the "right thing." He sets his mind on something and he makes sure it gets done the right way. While I may not be proud of what certain people in the Marine Corps have done, I am proud of all of the men and women who have proudly and honorably served our country. To me, my dad, Jerry and Mike truly embody "Semper Fidelis."
