U.S. Marine Chloe Mondesir is not in any way predictable.


First, as is often the case with women, you wouldn't expect her to be a military veteran (let alone a Marine), but she served as an Ammunition Technician in Iraq. She also holds multiple college degrees (something you wouldn't expect from a Marine — zing!) and is a mother of an 8-year-old (and her daughter, by the way, knows the lyrics to Drowning Pools' "Bodies" and headbangs accordingly).

Probably what's the most refreshing when you meet Mondesir is how fun-loving and energetic she is. If you're a fan of Season 2 of John Cena's "American Grit," then you already know this.

"It's pretty hot in Iraq so sometimes things get really tough and you need that extra motivation, and music just does it."

In her Battle Mix video, she even makes the heat of Iraq sound not so bad. She also talks about how she was privy to Usher's 2004 hit "Yeah" before the rest of her buddies at boot camp, and I grin every time I watch it.

Fun fact: she's the only one of WATM's Battle Mix veterans we had to censor. Just another great Chloe Mondesir surprise.
