 My name is Lance Corporal Alexander Delzell, fire team leader. I'm 21 from Germantown, Wisconsin. I enlisted in the Marine Corps when I was a junior in high school when I was 17 years old. There are times when it's probably one of the most stressful things that a 21-year-old can face just because if you didn't train your guys to perform at the level that they need to, they can die and other people's lives depend on how well we're able to perform our job. It's always said, brilliance in the basics. And whenever stuff hits the fan, I never want my Marines to rise up to the occasion. I want them to revert back to the basics and always continue pushing in the fight. Being a grunt is definitely a demanding job on your body and it kind of makes you feel like you're older than what you actually are. But I could see myself making this a career just because I love what we do.
