Dear @realDonaldTrump ,

You asked, “what’s in it for them?”

Well since you asked, let me tell you what my son gained from being a Marine.

He gained a level of self-confidence that will carry him through every challenge life will throw at him.

He became part of something bigger than himself, for the good of his country.

He learned to overcome immense physical and mental challenges.

He got to travel and see the wold from a larger perspective.

He also found a way to pay for college without student loans.
3/

Now that he completed his enlistment, he is going to college. The GI bill along with other benefits allows him to also receive a monthly income while in school.

Doesn’t sound like a sucker to me, sounds like a smart, brave kid making a great life for himself.
