Lt. Col. Sally Ann Falco's father, Kenneth Townes, holds a photo of Falco taken while she was at recruit training in 1987 at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, South Carolina. Falco served as an enlisted Marine for 14 years before her acceptance to the Meritorious Commissioning Program. She commissioned in August 2001 and will soon retire after 34 fruitful years in the Marine Corps. “I’ve just been privileged to be allowed to be a Marine,” Falco said. “I still love it as much as the day I came in, and I would stay in forever, but I want to make room for others to climb the ladder and at the same time, contribute to society in another capacity.” (Courtesy photo by Falco's mother, Loretta "Tootsie" Townes)
