Olson: Man behind T-shirt has great story

Noah Currier immediately recognized the T-shirt that 14-year-old Genoa Middle School student Michael McIntyre was made to turn inside-out this week.

Currier is a 30-year-old, quadriplegic Marine Corps veteran from Poplar Grove. The company he started in his garage in 2011, Oscar Mike, made the shirt.

“The reality is it was a Marines shirt, and everything the Marines do and stand for is about as patriotic as you can get,” Currier said.
