Hello, I'm currently a 4/C Marine Option Midshipman at a unit in a midwest. I am not in-state, and recently have been considering returning to my home state. This is because my mother is experiencing health complications, and I'd rather be 30 minutes away instead of 700 miles away when a...
I'm a current mid in the class of 2020. To make an extremely long story short, after a surgery in January this year I was diagnosed with a complex, chronic pain condition. I spent most of my spring semester in Walter Reed undergoing treatments and hospital stays, attending only 40 days of class...
