The End of an Era

So many people talk about the sacrifices military spouses and children make for their service member. This guy willingly sacrificed, pushing it through 30 years and six months for Mac to have end to end medical, therapy and quality special education services for as long as the Marine Corps would allow him. I am proud and eternally grateful to call him my best friend and first and only husband.

1994

Damon asked me who I wanted to escort me for his retirement ceremony. I considered the usual options and decided to make that moment come full circle. My escort will be a replica of who I fell in love with, a dark-haired male Flight Equipment Lance Corporal.
