Captain Mark T. Fulmer flew helicopters in Vietnam, pulling Marines from danger day after day. Every mission carried risk, but his commitment to saving lives never faltered. “Semper Fidelis”—always faithful—was more than a motto; it was his way of life.

After the war, he traded battlefields for skies, keeping people safe as a US Airways pilot. To his family, he was more than a veteran—he was a loving husband, father, and grandfather. A man whose courage showed in both war and peace.

Heroes don’t always wear capes. Some wear uniforms, others wings. Captain Fulmer wore both, and his legacy reminds us that service, love, and honor are the truest definitions of greatness.
