Our Member Jim Mathisen submitted a well done video of the 4th Marine Division returning to Maui from Iwo Jimo on 4 April 1945. A great history lesson of our past Marines.
The mission of the Marine Corps League is to promote the interest and to preserve traditions of the United States Marine Corps; strengthen the fraternity of Marines and their families; serve Marines, FMF Navy Corpsmen, and FMF Navy Chaplains who wear or who have worn the Eagle, Globe and Anchor; and foster the ideals of Americanism and patriotic volunteerism.
Active, Reserve, Retired, and Veteran Marines continue the faithful tradition of looking out for the Marines to their left and right. Founded in 1923 by Marine Corps Commandant then MajGen John A. Lejeune, and chartered in 1937 as the only Congressionally Chartered Marine Corps Veterans Service Organization.
Our Detachment serves the Crossville, TN area and the surrounding Cumberland County area as well.
