excerpt:
Marine Corps veterans tired of seeing fellow Marine Andrew Tahmooressi stuck in Mexican prison are traveling nearly 300 miles by foot to Washington, D.C., to tell President Obama to do whatever he has to do to get Mexico “to turn our Marine loose.”
Marine Corps veteran Terry Sharpe is 63 years old and began walking the 287 miles from his home in Summerfield, North Carolina, to Washington, D.C., two weeks ago to raise awareness about Tahmooressi, who has been in a Mexican prison since March.
“I just got tired of nothing being done,” Sharpe told the Washington Free Beacon on Monday as he rested after eleven full days of walking. “What I’m doing is trying to keep Sergeant Tahmooressi in the media.”
