My son charles just left 10-12-05 for Boot Camp in
San Diago. Charlie was diagnosed early on with ADD
and struggled through grade school - got involved
with Football in 5th grade and continued into Sophmore year and started wrestling in 8th grade
and continued through his senior year. He was jv
conference champ in 9th grade at 171#. Wrestled
varsity 10-12 grade, 11th grade went to State
at 215#. Charlie had many obsticals to overcome
but he made. I stand behind his choice to become
a Marine.
