She told me she had enlisted in the Marines and was shipping out in a few weeks and needed to make some extra cash for some special uniform or accessories or maybe body armor, so was holding a car wash to raise the funds.
Her name, and maybe her contact info, is in a small notebook from that trip.
If I had a car I would have gladly done my part, for our country. (I probably gave her ten bucks out of pocket).
