Birney Crum Stadium in Allentown, PA to watch this classic drum corps event. I only barely remember the corps that performed or what their…

To myself, service to country is one the greatest feeling you could ever imagine. I know this feeling from my 4 years of service in the Marine Corps. When I got out in 2012, I went to school, got a job and joined the rest of the world. You notice a different between a civilian and someone in the military.

In recent years, some historic upheavals include the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and the removal of gender-restrictions on military occupational specialties.
