Community Service is a big part of the Shenandoah Valley Young Marines Program
February 18, 2011 - 40 Young Marines from 7 different units within Division II come together to assist with the 66th
Anniversary of Iwo Jima and for the dedication of the Browning Automatic Rifleman Statue. Young Marines lined the walkway
as WWII Veterans from the 5th Marine Division arrive for the dedication. After the dedication the Young Marines met
Col Dunsford, Assistant Commandant of the Marine Corps, enjoyed a tour of the Marine Museum where Iwo Jima survivors talked
about their experiences, met the 1st Young Marine from 1959 and had the book War Shots signed by the authors, USMC battle
cameramen Norm Hatch and Charles Jones.
December 2010 - Young Marines assisted with the Marine Corps League Toys for Tots program in Loudoun County, by unloading
trucks, sorting and packing toys. Over 30,000 toys were donated, sorted, packed and delivered to needy families.
