I'm a senior at the University of Alabama studying graphic design and criminal justice. One of my teachers recently told us about your tragic incident. I think your willingness to peacefully support a cause you believe in no matter what the costs is brave and noble. Also, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your service as a Marine and a two-tour Iraq War Vet. My little brother is a cadet at West Point, and I would hope he'd be given the same love and respect were he ever in the same situation. I hope you have a speedy and full recovery! I'll be praying for you and your family during this time. 

God Bless, 

Jane Ellis
