"The Marine Corps family is alive and well and that is a matter of pride. Let us hold tight to that pride and honor and let's comfort our brothers and sisters".
One of the most important responsibilities our members have is keeping the traditions of our Marine Corps alive. Not forgetting and honoring those who served before us is one of our most important traditions, this is why your participation in services for departed Marines should be an honor and privilege for you. Please make every effort to be there when the call goes out.
