‘The Corps’ is about a gay teenager named Cameron Cope who’s been bullied at school, and decides to join the marine corps with his straight best friend Ray. The series’ synopsis (via PinkNews) reads:

“I had a tragically typical [coming out]. I was scared for a long time, and it took me a while,” the actor told L’Officiel.
He further shared about his first Pride experience, expressing:
“It was an amazing experience and feeling, because it was such a quick turn from being so closeted to so free and being myself.”
“It was fun to be around people who I could actually relate to. I hadn’t had that many experiences with people in the community up to that point, so it was such a nice feeling to be surrounded by people that understood me and had gone through the same experience as me,” Miles stated.

I have collected autographs since a child with great success. However lately most addresses online are either wrong or being ignored. I am requesting a current address that I might write to to request an autograph. Thank you for your time. DAVE BARGAS
