My name is Henry Willson, (yes two L's) I was born in Redwood Sequoia Hospital in 1982, 41 years ago.....I think...... I have one brother and my mom and dad have been separated for some time but are still friends. At the age of 2 my parents separated, and my brother and I were put on a train to spend some time in Mexico where my mom lived. We were there for 3 years doing preschool and kindergarten where I was definitely the white guy on campus......My mom came and got us, then we moved to Fremont, Californiawhere I grew up with my older brother Paul running the streets while the parents worked, we just had to be home before the lights were on. Had my first job at target where I worked my ass off when I was 14-18. I graduated high school in 2001, and wanted to be the best of the best, so I joined the Marine Corps of course!!!!!.......my best bud Branden Benner also joined with me.......I became a machine gunner for the 2nd battalion, 1st Marines, Camp Pendleton. My first wife and I stayed together for awhile while she was doing her own bullshit while I was on deployment.....I went to Iraq twice, once in 2002/2003, and the 2nd time in 2004 where I saw combat daily for months on end. I was shot in the head while calling for close air support in Fallujah. I saved a bunch of people and was given a NAM with combat Valor. I went through the drug thing when I found out my wife was cheating on me and I was dealing with a headshot wound recovery. Then after the divorce was final I married my 2nd wife where I had two kids with her only to divorce her 4 years later to meet the love of my life Andrea. We have 2 boys and girls together and we raise the family. I work at the VA, but I am thinking about retiring to spend time with the people I cherish most, MY FAMILY. I love helping vets and people and enjoy going to my cabin in pine grove. I am a big snowboarder and enjoy playing poker and of course video games -Henry Willson, Marine Corps Veteran
