   The void created by those warriors that would certainly have done good for this world, that we owe it to them to leave a positive mark in this world, and that can take many forms for me, That was why I wanted to be a physician. It didn't really matter that it was medicine. It was just natural for me because that's what I was involved in, to take that level of service to a higher calling, but taking it like trying to become an astronaut is completely consistent with my promise to leave a positive impact in this world and that's how I honor the brothers we lost. And I will never stop until the day I die trying to fill in that void because it's a void that can never be filled in.
