Linca Cipro's Story:
Linda Carol Cipro was born in Shrewsbury, MA in 1955. She went to Shrewsbury High School, and after she graduated, a family friend asked if she wanted to join the National Guard. Linda had nothing going on after high school, so she said said yes and joined the military. She went to school in Biloxi, MS and from there went to a military base in San Antonio, TX. She not only had an amazing experience, but also she enjoyed herself. Though she only served for two years, she claims that those two years helped her, shaped her, in the person she is today. She uses many of the tools and tips she learned in the military in her job working for the town of Yarmouth, MA. Though Linda was still young when she joined the National Guard, she grew up to be a stronger person due to her time in the military.
