    Ryan Forbes, a 13 year-old native of San Diego, talks with Marines of Lima Battery, 3rd Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, about the weapon systems and lifestyles of the Marines at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms May 13, 2014. Forbes was an honorary Marine for a day with the battalion. He was accompanied by his parents and brother, and attended training with the battery, participating in drills and eating lunch with a section. Forbes has wanted to join the military for several years and spends time learning about the different branches. He was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer in January. His diagnosis and current treatment for medullablastoma hasnt hampered his enthusiasm for the military.
