3 Time All-American Post 2 keep fraternal bond of military service alive 2 render honor 2 those who preceded us in previous wars 2 help Vets that r in distress
In 2004, Marines from 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines — the India Raiders — entered the Battle of Fallujah, Iraq. Some, like Lance Corporal Justin McLeese, made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our Nation.
This Memorial Day, Semper Fi & America’s Fund honors the courage, sacrifice, and legacy of our fallen heroes.
At our Unit Reunions, Gold Star families stand beside the service members who served with their loved ones — remembering together, healing together, and honoring the unbreakable bonds forged in combat.
We invite you to watch Justin’s parents share their son’s story and how these reunions help keep his memory alive.
You can help make more of these healing reunions possible through our $500,000 Unit Reunion Match Campaign. Every dollar given will be doubled to help veterans reconnect, heal, and honor those they lost.
Never Alone. Never Forgotten.

For Washington’s Birthday Weekend (February 12-16), Floridians can enjoy free admission to all state parks and other state-owned public lands.
We are also launching the America 250 Florida essay contest, which will allow students throughout the state to enter for the chance to receive a scholarship to any of our state colleges or universities.
