“Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it.”

The name sake of our detachment, James Tijerina along with the other crew members of his CH-46 were shot down in Iraq today. They gave the last full measure of devotion to this country.

Forgive me, but I’d like to be OFF this page ASAP! No one is managing it or checking messages. Lots of Marines are needing assistance & i can’t help them any longer. I haven’t been a part of this detachment in 4 years. PLEASE find a new page manager. Thanks & Semper Fi!!
