    Billy Robbins, a world-renowned motivational speaker and Marine Vietnam veteran, speaks to Cherry Point Marines as Pfc. Matthew L. Stamm, a data network specialist with Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, gets a firsthand experience of what it is like to be paralyzed at the air station theater Sept. 7. Robbins lost both hands in a workplace accident in December 1980 and has since used his experience to motivate people to make safety a priority. “You can’t let your emotions dictate your life,” said Robbins. “Attitudes need to change. You have to be motivated or risk complacency.”
