A Marine's Peace created from bits and pieces of information from the Marine's real-life journey and family stories of his struggles. John Sanchez, Jr. a Marine Corporal born November 6, 1971 and raised in Reedley, California until May14, 2007, served with honor in US Marine Corps The Marine's experiences demonstrated extraordinary valor in the heat of battle and compassion during certain death situations for the enemy. The stories change from present to past as do the nightmares of the Marine. The struggle for mental peace is clearly a challenge as manifested when working on the tractor and his son's baseball practice. He felt betrayed when a young Marine took his last breath and he discovered that media members assisted in informing, preparing, and setting IED's that were responsible for the death of his troops. Vengeance was not the Marine Corporal's way, however executing orders that satisfied that objective, allowed the Marine to free his sense of loss. The most perplexing emotional moment occurs when the father discovers that his son is being treated by emergency personnel and he is not allowed to go to his side. No moment is more emotionally challenging than seeing your child at deaths calling and you cannot stop it from happening. The courage and sentiment of the Marine's mother and the passenger in the truck are breath taking. Anxiously waiting for headlights to blanket the kitchen window, but instead the Marine's mother received a phone call notifying her of the death of her son and her grandson holding onto her and pleading for news about his father. Quick intense breathing and crying is hard to avert as you experience the tragic emotional abyss from which recovery is impossible. A quick and easy read, but tissues will be necessary.
