As a proud U.S. Marine and father of two veterans, I know the meaning of service, sacrifice & honor.

To all who’ve worn the uniform — thank you.
May God’s love guide you & our nation never forget your courage.

Semper Fidelis. 🇺🇸

The Responsibility
Carrying a firearm in a hospital is more than a job—it’s a duty.
