I observed her during the shoot-off and had the opportunity to chat with her for a couple of hours at The Sconce.<br /><br />Marie is an example of what all Americans should be.<br /><br />In addition to being a member of the Young Marines, including the drill team, she starts the Merchant Marine Academy in the fall of 2009.<br /><br />American is a better place for her invovlment and I am proud to help welcome her and Jennifer to the Raven Clan.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/108473500021018899-1244250599694901909?l=gunsiteym.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>APIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04397022882862007322noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108473500021018899.post-1125038729244434282009-07-30T13:49:00.000-07:002009-07-30T13:50:19.693-07:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6l1gyPrBjKc/SnIHfq_RilI/AAAAAAAAABs/ANucb77-aFk/s1600-h/genthumb2.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px;
