We have all been inspired by Taylor’s story. Her struggle, her strength and her love of the Marines. While she was in Bethesda for further medical attention, she received a wonderful gift! She had a visit from some very special young men. (Her story is here.)
Come to find out, Taylor not only met these wonderful Marines, but she also got a visit from one of HER Marines, Capt B/Major Pain of One Marine’s View. The link will take you to his post about that visit…get your kleenex ready!
My platoon sergeant, nine other members of my platoon and I just returned to the barracks from visiting an amazing little girl. If you haven’t already heard about her, the full story is over at onemarinesview.com. Her strength and attitude are an example to everyone around her. As we visited with her, she openly welcomed us and made the other children in her wing at home, inviting them to ask us questions and taking charge of our little formation.
The fact that she has reached out to us, seeing past her own trials and suffering is beyond my comprehension. We are proud to say we are her brothers, as she embodies the spirit of Semper Fidelis. Regardless of whether or not she ever guts it out through 13 weeks of bootcamp, she has endured through her own refining crucible and earned the title Marine. (diddymou)

Thanks for the link!
What a wonderful story about courage, kindness and brotherhood!
It truly is a great story, Sarah!
Who is the guy all the way to the left?
Ariana, I don’t know the names of the marines, but I believe the one all the way to the left is the platoon sergeant.
I’m going to do some research and see if I can’t find some new information on Taylor to post.
Thanks for stopping by!
