Jake Enholm enlisted in the Marine Corps at the tender age of eighteen and immediately won all kinds of awards and accolades, was promoted incredibly quickly up the ranks, and retired with thousands of adoring fans after twenty-two years.

Not really.

Jake Enholm clawed and fought his way up the chain of command from private to major, through wars and bureaucracy, and was lucky to escape with his life.
