Tom Ward

Branch: Marines
Served: 1972 - 1975
Hometown: Northport, NY
I served with the 2/2 comm platoon. In my family we serve our country. My father, brother, brother-in-law and uncles served and my son is active duty. I served knowing there were unknown risks. ALS is that unknown risk. If it were a known risk I still would have become a Marine for my country. I choose to live with ALS in the best way possible.
