I had my squad when I was a marine, they were like my family. But when I got discharged I lost contact with all of them. But a few years ago my commanding officer arrived in town and as it turns out, she's my half-sister. So, that was a surprise. Her second in command is here too. He's like an older brother. I owe him a lot. I owe them both a lot. So, yeah, I guess in a way I have found family.
I've always kind of wondered what it was like, though, having all those cousins and uncles and stuff. Did you ever get overwhelmed?
