6TH MARINE CORPS DISTRICT, PARRIS ISLAND, S.C.(May 30, 2002) -- She's an unassuming young lady, soft spoken when first introduced, bright eyed with a ready smile like so many other 17-year-olds. What you learn when you talk to her though, is that this young lady from Pine Hill, Ala., is on her game. This high-school-graduate scholar, poet, sports leader and volunteer worker has plans. Some day she will be an officer of Marines.
