6 pride in service
By: HM2(FMF) Cesar Martinez NMRTC Camp Pendleton, CA
My name is Cesar Martinez, a Hospital Corpsman Second Class, Surgical Technologist from Pico Rivera, California. I joined the Navy in 2009 at the age of 18, because I lost my support system.... I was faced with an internal conflict of going back “in the closet” or doing what was necessary to support myself. I decided to lie to myself and join the Navy.
