Paul Cumberland, Corporal USMC - HUMAN EVENTS

This is long - but SO VERY worth the time. It is a microcosm of all who serve.

His house was located on Berwyn Road, directly across the street from Holy Redeemer Elementary School and Church playground in College Park, MD. It was an old, large house reminiscent of something out of the movie It’s a Wonderful Life. It was a big, comfortable, welcoming house. The playground also served as a parking lot for the church services on Sundays, and it held two half basketball courts. One installed on a slight slope of the playground, the other was next to it but on the level area of the pavement. This one was the backboard of choice between the two."
