Noe's Story
Life
This goes out to the people who want to know the real Noe. Born Nov. 10, 1978 in Mexico City, Mexico " Chilango" y que!!!! Father worked in U.S. for 10yrs to earn enough money to bring us to the States. My brother and I had to be smuggled across as little girls while my sisters suffered in the trunk of the Oldsmobile. We made it to the U.S. via Cali. Aug. 7, 1981, arrived in Reno Aug. 28, 1981. Since then my family has been bust'n there a**'s to get ahead. We've moved 6X's finally settling down in Sparks after my mom bought our fams 1st house. I've gone to 3 elementary schools, & 2 middle. My parents divorced when I was in the 5/6th grade. All my familly is millitary: father an MP for Mexican Army, 2 olders sister and my Lil Bro are U.S. Army. I'm the only smart one, joining the U.S. Marine Corps. We've all been to war in one form or another. My Lil Bro and I just got back from Iraq "wasn't that bad when I was there but, gotten worse since I've left". I'm no longer in the Corps, but as we say "ONCE A MARINE ALWAYS A MARINE." After some final deciding I have choosen to move to up state New York to be the Athletic Director at a small school there!!!! Just last year I bought a second truck you may have seen me as as I blew past you, lol!!!! It's a Red n Silver Ford F150 with a 4/5 inch lift on it!!!! Liscence plate cover reads "Double Threat a Mexican Marine"!!!! So has any one seen me!!!!

MCT/SOI (MARINE COMBAT TRAINING/SPECIAL OPS. INSTRUCTION)
Nov 4, 1998 to Nov 19, 1998
This is what I thought Boot Camp was like. Best night ever was our 3day/night battle between class's. I was up all 3days/nights cuz the guy I was partnered with kept falling asleep. On the last night we had a meteor shower that lit up the sky. It made Graduation the next day all the more enjoyable
