This week’s Urban Valor episode features Marine veteran Rebekah Dorko. Rebekah grew up poor in San Diego with four sisters and was homeless for a period. She talks about her mother having a mental breakdown, loading all 5 girls in a vehicle, and attempting to run people over at a gas station. 

Rebekah experienced physical and mental abuse from her biological parents and in the foster care system. She enlisted in the Marine Corps, thinking becoming a Marine would help her cope with the trauma she endured as a kid. 

However, Rebekah ended up experiencing severe Military Sexual Trauma and talks about being taken advantage of on several occasions during her enlistment.
