I got was Honerably discharged from the Marine Corps on October 17th 1998. Due to my MOS and the conflicts that took place during my enlistment I killed over 50 of the enemy in the line of duty. I became a accepted Christ as my Savior in 2001 and immediately felt guilt for the first time ever about the lives I took. After a talk with my pastor and an in depth study in the the old testament concerning wars and the lives God ordered taken by His followers I finally came to the realization that what I did was for the greater good and acceptable in MY LORDS eyes. I have received many thanks from family, friends and former service men and women today for my service. Today I am more proud that ever for my service to my country and my chest swells with pride when I am thanked and am able to thank those who also served. Thank you to the veterans out there and those who serve today. Your sacrifice, bravery and commitment is not forgotten nor gone unnoticed neither nor our Lord. I am a Marine Corps veteran.
