"Growing up in San Diego with Mexican immigrant parents, Lieutenant Martinez never imagined he would one day end up working at the Pentagon.

He was recruited while he was still in high school, he said. After more than a decade of service and deployment to the Arabian Gulf, he landed in D.C. for an analyst job.

"There are just things that you don't ever expect to happen to you. Every time I walk in to the building I feel a sense of awe," Martinez, 29, told Fusion in a telephone interview Wednesday."
