(THE DENVER CHANNEL) To many of those who have worn the uniform, it represents more than a title. Being a Marine is an identity.
“They say once a Marine always a Marine. It’s going to stay with me for the rest of my life, you know?” said Mansoor Shams.
Shams came to the United States from Pakistan when he was six. At 18, he chose to serve his country.
“As corny as I may sound, a bit later, I decided I wanted to become part of the best, ‘The few, the proud, the Marines.’ So, I decided to join the Marine Corps,” Shams said.
