๐ The Marine Corps League: Continuing the Legacy of Honor, Courage, and Commitment ๐
The Marine Corps League (MCL) is a vibrant, nationwide organization dedicated to preserving the legacy of the United States Marine Corps and serving Marines, veterans, and their families. Founded in 1923 by Major General John A. Lejeune, the Marine Corps League is chartered by Congress and welcomes all Marines, Fleet Marine Force Corpsmen, and Fleet Marine Force Navy Chaplains, past and present, who honorably served.
๐ฅ What We Stand For ๐ฅ
The Marine Corps League is grounded in the core values of honor, courage, and commitmentโvalues that every Marine carries throughout life. Our mission is simple but powerful: to continue serving our fellow Marines, their families, and our communities with the same dedication and esprit de corps that defines the Marine Corps.
- Veteran Advocacy: We support veterans through advocacy, connecting them with resources, benefits, and job opportunities. We are committed to helping veterans transition into civilian life with dignity and support.
- Community Engagement: Whether it’s organizing local events, patriotic ceremonies, parades, or supporting community initiatives, MCL detachments across the country play an active role in their local communities.
- Youth Programs & Mentorship: We guide the next generation through scholarships, leadership programs, and the Young Marines, helping youth develop the values of discipline, leadership, and respect.
