Editor: Rachel Arietta is my niece, and a birthday present to me 19 years ago as we were born on the same date. She has always been a straightforward, loving and tough girl, however, since becoming a Marine, Rachel exudes physical and mental strength that she did not demonstrate prior. She has also encouraged two of her cousins from Temecula to join the armed services as well. One, currently aged 20, is going through boot camp now in the Army, and will train to work on helicopters. The second, currently 21, is leaving in July for Navy boot camp and will go on to train in the nuclear field. Although I miss them all beyond measure, I could not be more proud of these young men and women that we were blessed to have and who choose to stand up for the great United States of America and serve their country with pride.
