Sam is a 78-year-old male who engaged in antisocial and delinquent behavior from a young age. Once he turned 18, he enlisted in the military and became a career soldier. Since becoming a soldier and marrying, Sam cut ties with delinquent friends he hung out with when they skipped school, stopped drinking, and raised a successful family.
