We are proud of all of our military members and those Mainers, and Americans who choose that selfless vocation. Locally, at Townsquare Media, our hearts couldn't be fuller for one of our own colleagues who was able to observe one of his sons this week graduate from Navy Boot Camp in Great Lakes, Illionois.

Behind the scenes, Free Martin is one of our kindest, most energetic, and 'impossible not to love' account managing wizards. On the air on Q105.6 with David & Cindy, you have most likely heard this same jovial and loyal character be referred to as "Father Free."

In his life, he has seen and done it all, but nothing has been more important to him than his kids. Watching his son choose a life serving his country is undoubtedly a pinnacle in Martin's life highlight reel.

Tristan Martin is 18 years old and recently graduated high school from John Bapst Memorial. He had many options in live, but "Navy choose him." So many people have assisted Tristian in his 18 years by affording him opportunities and molding him into the man that he is today, and now he is returning the favor - by serving his country.

Navy Seaman Apprentice Tristan Martin, Father Free Martin, and the entire Martin family, your Townsquare Media family are proud of you and congratulations!
