Ensign Andrew Valencia, a Purple Heart recipient, former United States Marine, and graduate of Officer Candidate School (OCS), Class 04-25, at Officer Training Command Newport, reflects upon his time at OCS and what it means in volunteering to become a part of the world's greatest Navy.
The Purple Heart is the oldest active military award in the United States and was introduced August 7, 1782 by General George Washington as a military badge of merit. In 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt authorized the Purple Heart to be presented to all military services.
