(Los Angeles Times)
5. A Marine veteran's home in Oceanside has gone solar after a gift from a veteran-owned solar company, Semper Solaris. "When they called us, I was shocked. Honestly, I thought it was fake," said Kelly Clark, who nominated Sgt. Major Douglas Berry and wife Megan. Semper Solaris owner Kelly Shawhan is also a veteran and enjoys giving back. "The old adage, 'It's better to give than receive' is so true because on a day like today, this is my own personal parade here because I get to watch the smiles on these people's faces and everyone's lit up and glowing and just enjoying their day." (CBS News 8)
