00:00:00,073 --> 00:00:04,068
(inspirational music)

2
00:00:04,068 --> 00:00:06,570
- [Matthew] I'm corporal
Matthew Sean Maddox.

3
00:00:06,570 --> 00:00:08,053
I was a 1812 tankerman.

4
00:00:10,330 --> 00:00:14,050
I went last year but there
was no captain or co-captain

5
00:00:14,050 --> 00:00:16,040
so I think they decided, hey,

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:17,990
we should have a captain and co-captain.

7
00:00:17,990 --> 00:00:19,190
It means the world to me.

8
00:00:19,190 --> 00:00:22,150
I was there last year as
the ultimate champion.

9
00:00:22,150 --> 00:00:24,330
I had a lot of fun, learned a
lot of sports that I did like

10
00:00:24,330 --> 00:00:25,993
and some sports I didn't like.

11
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:30,740
To be a part of this team
again and to be co-captain

12
00:00:30,740 --> 00:00:33,480
and ambassador for the next
year's game is just amazing,

13
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:37,520
- [Matthew] because the Marine
Corp is already the 1% of 1%,

14
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:40,990
and to take that and take
the very few wounded warriors

15
00:00:40,990 --> 00:00:43,850
we have and to make
this type of level team,

16
00:00:43,850 --> 00:00:46,140
I can't almost put into
words how amazing it is

17
00:00:46,140 --> 00:00:49,770
to even be a part of this team
and meet all these people.

18
00:00:49,770 --> 00:00:51,890
No matter how bad the situation is,

19
00:00:51,890 --> 00:00:54,190
no matter how bad our injury is,

20
00:00:54,190 --> 00:00:56,620
as long as we embrace what we have learned

21
00:00:56,620 --> 00:01:00,070
- [Matthew] in boot camp or
our traditions in our branches,

22
00:01:00,070 --> 00:01:01,900
grab our brothers and sisters around us,

23
00:01:01,900 --> 00:01:04,968
and we just work together and
can still do great things.

24
00:01:04,968 --> 00:01:06,803
Once a marine, always a marine.
