Dear Major General Usher,

I gratefully acknowledge, accept, and thank you for the recent support of the 2d Marine Aircraft Wing's PME trip to Belleau Wood, France in June of this year. This educational and historical tour will be of immense value in familiarizing Marines with the importance of our legacy in sustaining the Marine Corps.

Dear MajGen Usher,

Please allow me to express my deepest thanks and appreciation to you and the members of the Board of Governors of the Marine Corps Association for the recognition and generous gift associated with the 2011 Col Bevan G.

Sir (MajGen Edward Usher),

I wanted to thank you and the Marine Corps Association for the tremendous support we have received over the past many weeks. Our Command Post Dedication Ceremony was a momentous occasion for all in attendance, particularly the many veterans of the 1st Marine Division.

I want to relay my many thanks to everyone at Marine Corps Association
and Military Historical Tours for providing me the opportunity to
experience such a wonderful trip to Russia. Had I not won this trip
through MCA I may have never taken advantage of such fantastic
travels. The group, the Russian Tour guide (Oleg Alexandrov) and
Charlie Dunn were wonderful companions during the trip. It will be a
memory I will cherish all of my remaing days on this earth...

I just wanted to inform you that we received our books yesterday afternoon.  It was very exciting to open the box, find the various titles held within and realizing that "these books belong to us MALS-16".  We can't thank you and the MCAF enough for this great opportunity.  We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.  Have a great day Sir.

Sir (Col John Keenan),

This is a belated thank you note for the order of professional reading books that were received by the MSG Detachment in Lima, Peru.  The books arrived only a few days after our order, with none missing or damaged in any way.  I placed all the books in the inventory of our library and breifed all the Marines that the new books were in and ready to be checked out and read at any time.  All of us here in Lima greatly appreciate what the Marine Corps...
