The Marine Corps League, established by General John A. LeJeune in 1928, is an organization of active duty and former Marines, and those Naval personnel having served with Fleet Marine Forces, having served in an honorable manner for the purposes of promoting camaraderie and fellowship. The Marine Corps League is joined together for preserving the traditions and promoting the interests of the United States Marine Corps, the ideals of American freedom and democracy, voluntarily aiding and rendering assistance to all active duty Marines, former Marines, their families, widows and orphans; and, perpetuating the history of the United States Marine Corps.
The members of Marine Corps League Detachment 17 are a diverse collection of former and active duty Marines who share their common pride and spirit in our Nation's Marine Corps. Our members come from all walks of life and many different periods of Marine Corps history, but we all share that special bond as brothers and sisters of a unique band of warriors who have served or are serving our Nation at home and abroad.
We are not a veteran's organization that sits around telling war stories and how it was in the "Real Corps". Our main purpose is to share and build upon that special bond between Marines by supporting other Marines, past and present, along with their families in time of need.
Please explore our web site and see what we have to offer. We ask you to join us and rejuvenate your Marine spirit and espre de corp. Your families are also welcome. We look forward to greeting you and welcoming you into our fold.
Semper Fidelis
