David Wheat was accepted into the United States Marine Corps on May 5 and began boot camp in San Diego.

The son of Lynn Sloma of Whitehouse, Wheat is expected to graduate boot camp on Aug. 1 and officially earn the title of Marine.

Wheat is planning to specialize in supply and accounting. His job training after boot camp could be in San Diego or in South Carolina but will not be known until he graduates from boot camp.
