USMC Veteran Rand Timmerman shares a raw and powerful story of childhood hardship, family sacrifice, and the moment that pushed him toward the Marine Corps.
Raised in a family of warriors — a father who flew in WWII, uncles who served, and a home marked by poverty and struggle — Rand faced questions about life, faith, and survival from a young age.
In this clip, Rand reveals:
🔥 What it was like growing up poor and hungry
🔥 How his father’s post-war battle with polio shaped their family
🔥 Why he questioned God at just five years old
🔥 The exact moment a radio broadcast inspired him to join the Marines
🔥 How desperation and duty combined to drive his decision
This is a story of resilience, courage, and finding purpose in the midst of pain.
