Thanks for sharing, @trublue. With so many dissatisfied and entitled young adults in the news, this story was a refreshing change.  I appreciated how Aka and his family chose to immigrate to the U.S. and their obvious love for America.  Aka's work ethic and willingness to overcome adversity will serve him well as an Army officer. We're blessed to have him serve our nation.

Good read:  
excerpt: “Football has taught me how to be a leader and that you always have to grind when things don’t go your way,” Aka, 25, said. “You are always going to have moments when things don’t go your way and you learn what adversity is all about. Nothing is easy. You just have to keep chopping wood and keep fighting until you find success.”
