In 1778 during the war of independenc, the marine Corps Rose was dedicated to the Marines who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. This tradition was continued by the French during World War One when the Marines attached the Germans in trenches at Beleau Wood. Roses were planted by the grateful French people at the graves of the Fallen marines.
Stop by the Marine Corps league booth and receive a rose pen. Donations are greatly appreciated. Donation will be distributed to wounded warrior, moms, food closet, and local charities.
