Joseph was nominated by Marti:
Even though my husband is in the reserves, he still takes his military career very seriously. Joe is prior Navy and on top of his military career he also works as an Agricultural Engineer for Purdue Farms in Chesapeake. Besides his 2 jobs he does a wonderful job of being a father and husband. Joe is currently deployed until October so he is missing a lot of firsts for our 1 1/2 yr old daughter. So I nominate my husband because to me he goes above and beyond every day.
