Mary Ann writes her sons really miss the Corps, especially Steve. He says he was the happiest when he was an active Marine. PFC Clint Lehner says he was born to do this. Gunny Steve, Fred Jr., and Jim's dad was Army, so according to Mary Ann, you can imagine the teasing that went on. Their dad passed 21 years ago.
