I asked several active duty service members, veterans, police officers and first responders what comes to mind when they think about their careers and time spent serving.

Selfless, Courage, Devotion, Sacrifice, Bravery.

Protect, Dedicated, Compassionate, Family, Honorable.

"Those who suffer together, stay together."

"You're part of a family you never knew you had."

"You experience things that test your limits."

"You learn things about yourself, that you wouldn't otherwise have known."

A LOYAL BROTHERHOOD.

An unbreakable bond that transcends time and distance.

Persevere the SUCK.

Sacrifice.

Experience true leadership in the face of hardships.

Learn respect for all people.

A greater appreciation for your family, you're away form them for years.

BROTHERHOOD. 
There isn't another bond greater than two Marines, whether they served together or not.

Portraits are a tangible celebration of that pride. 

An overwhelming sense of pride fills my heart.
