Of all the DP1 members, Cpl. Martin represents what makes his platoon great more than anyone else. This man seems to have an endless drive for improving himself and his squad. He participates in all he can, not for his own sake but just to help out wherever he can. Yet he does also continuously work to improve himself. And he does all this with a smile on his face, being able to run with a joke as well as he can dish them out himself. I have been more than pleased over the years to see this man grow as a leader, a machine gunner, and a person altogether. And I hope I have only seen the start of this, since you have been with us for a period of three years and six months now. Which, of course, entitles you to your 7th Army of Occupation Medal! Congratulations!
