We have been invited to a very special event to honor and celebrate new US Marine graduates and show them how much we appreciate them.
On Friday, a group of Marines will graduate basic training at MCRD (Marine Corps Recruit Depot), these Marines are known as India Company. Their last year has been severely effected by the pandemic in that most of them are recent high school graduates who missed their senior year having to complete it in a virtual world of Zoom, they missed their Proms and their HS graduation. And now, their graduation from boot camp is virtual and no parents are allowed to attend.
Some of the parents of these Marines reached out to the Patriot Guard asking us to do something to make their graduation day something a little more special and we are excited and honored to do so.
Please bring your FLAGS & BANNERS as we will be doing a Flag Line in celebration of these Marines.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring these troops.
