Other then the long hours that i had to endure because my job was in communications (radio operator). I have have had the opportunity to create many memories from all the different places I had the privilege of going to.
One of the best is being able to go to Iwo Jima. I loved this experience not only because of the history that this island has in the Marine Corps but because not everyone had the opportunity to go. Especially during the celebration of the battle. I enjoyed being able to speak to other Marines at the time and the families of the military members that served during that time. I also was able to see the black beach of the island.
