Ryan Forbes, a 13 year-old boy from San Diego, talks about being made an honorary "Marine for a day" with service members of Lima Battery, 3rd Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Calif. Forbes, accompanied by his parents and brother, attended training with the battery, participating in drills and eating lunch with a section.

His diagnosis and current treatment for medullablastoma hasn't hampered his enthusiasm for the military. Available in high definition.
