Gay Marine’s husband surprised at respect shown by Naval Academy
John Fliszar had a heart attack in 2006 and was rushed to Illinois Masonic Medical Center.

“When I was in the emergency room with him, he asked me to promise him, if he died, to make sure his ashes were interred in the Naval Academy,” said Mark Ketterson. “He loved that place. He very much wanted to be there.”

3. I'm the daughter of a Marine-if any of the branches of
the military are going to get it right it's the Marines and the Navy.
