NO More WAR
Justin comments on his Marine Corps service from 2003-2012. Although peace is the ultimate goal, we must also be able to fight for what we believe in.
As odd as it may sound, my time training for war and seeing war-torn nations - has deepened my appreciation of peace and diplomacy.
We have a lot of problems to solve.
Why are you running for office?
Similar to why I joined the Marine Corps infantry in 2003 after graduating high school, I feel a call to serve.
