1st Recon Battalion Marine 'Box Drive'
Please join me as representatives of our PWC community, in supporting this valuable USMC Recon Platoon. These men have been training diligently for over a year and have made many personal sacrifices to get 'their job done'. While we are enjoying our comfortable lifestyles -they are going a distance that many of us are not aware of, but can appreciate by showing our support in small measures, such as participating in a 'Box Drive'.
