WHO KNEW

A young boy visited a family as a child of the Fresh Air Fund. They placed kids from New York City out in homes and camps out in the country. Gabriel visited a family who knew for the rest of their lives. He became one of the family. They educated him and sent him to prep school. He was fortunate enough to get a scholarship to a mid western college where he enjoyed his life immensely where he competed in varsity soccer, wrestling and baseball. He was all smiles the first year. He was floored when he when he failed art, psychology, and philosophy in the first term of his second year. Never had he failed anything in his life. He didn't think the courses were difficult. He took a few courses and they reinstated him. The same day the dean of students left a note on his door with the good news he had already joined the Marine Corps.
