Honorable Discharge from the United States Marine Corps

While David was in the United States Marine Corps, he was a member of the first ground unit to go to Vladivostok, Russia on a diplomatic mission. The job of the unit was to get to know the people and to give them a glimpse of Americans. He feels very fortunate to have been a part of this diplomatic mission and is proud of the silver flask that he received as a gift from his Russia military counterpart. Having grown up during the cold war, it was interesting for David to realize how much the two cultures truly had in common.
