Shaped by a hostile environment, Dolan should have developed behaviors that would condemn him to social and educational failure and perhaps chronic mental illness. But that didn't happen. Removed from his West Haven (Connecticut) home at 13 and cast into the child welfare system, Rob Dolan graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy and is a lieutenant in the Marine Corps. Now 28, he hopes to go to law school or, possibly, run for public office."
