Honor Your Father or Grandfather's Legacy
Years ago, the Sixth Marine Division Association was made up of Sixth Division Marines. No surprise. As their children grew up, some of them wanted to get involved. This was controversial. They weren't on Okinawa. Would they try to take over?
Eventually the kids convinced their dads that they just wanted to help. And to honor their sacrifice. So lineal descendants were permitted to join the Association. Their goal? To keep the history and memory of the Sixth Marine Division burning bright for generations to come. And on an operational level, they could help the Marines enjoy the benefits and camaraderie of their reunions.
But now reunions are a thing of the past. We held the last one in September 2021. Without reunions, there is no need to take in new members or collect membership dues. But that doesn't mean there is nothing for lineal descendents to do.
If you are a lineal descendant, we encourage you to subscribe to our newsletter. If you are on Facebook, like our page so you can get keep up with news about the Sixth Marine Division. And continue to visit our website.
