With almost 25 years in the Marine Corps behind him and a promotion dangling in front of him, Maj. Kim Rossiter decided to take the right fork in the road and retire.
He wanted to focus on a new venture, a nonprofit offering assistance to disabled people in order to empower them to participate in athletic competitions. Ainsley’s Angels does just that.
“And we have an opportunity to just make sure everybody can be included in running events, and swimming events, and triathlons,†Rossiter told Marine Corps Times by phone. “I’m just focusing on building this program to as big as we can make it, and it’s been quite the blessing.â€
