Identical twins Matthew and Robert Shipp from Hauser Lake, Idaho, are both U.S. Marine lance corporals. Matthew is deployed to Iraq; Robert is in Kuwait.
Lance Cpl. Matthew Shipp is about to celebrate his first wedding anniversary. He married his high-school sweetheart, Jessica, on May 27, 2007, about five months before he left for Iraq. Lance Cpl. Robert Shipp married his girlfriend, Dusty, while on leave in October.
The Spokesman-Review in Spokane, Wash., has been following the 20-year-olds since they graduated from high school, joined the Marine Corps and shipped out for duty. The series is called Brothers in Arms.
