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...

Sir (John Keenan) ,

The squadron can't thank you enough.  This will greatly enhance our PME program which has my rigorous support.  We currently have a comman and staff seminar at the squadron as well as participate actively in every resident PME from E4 to E9.  My maintenance chief is attending the FBI course later this month.  We are disciples of MCDP 1.

Thanks again Sir.  It would be quite an honor if you and any of your staff can visit our new...

Dear General Usher,

Thank you so much for the certificate and gift you gave me at the MCWAR graduation. The certificate will be nice to show my kids as they get older and understand more about the Corps. The year at MCWAR was fantastic. We have a great school and its small size makes it unique among the War Colleges. I believe it is the gem of the MCU schools. Again, thank you for the kind gift and support to MCWAR.

Semper Fidelis,

Sir (John Keenan),

I would like to personally thank you and the Marine Corps Association for providing the detachments of Region 5, Marine Corps Embassy Security Group with books through the Marine Corps Association. Passed as a “Best Practice” during our Spring Conference, the detachments have been encouraged to build their professional reading libraries over the past six months. With each visit I realized the value added to each detachment and each Marine as we discussed “Brilliance...

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.

To the Marine Corps Association,

I would like to thank you for presenting me with the Marine Corps Association Award.  I feel it is an honor to be the recipient of this award and I am grateful for the recognition of my efforts while at the Iowa State University Naval ROTC.  I consider this award a source of pride and will continue to cherish it in the years to come.

Dear Col Keenan,

On behalf of the Marines and Sailors of 1st Marine Special Operations Battalion, I would like to thank you for your support in helping us to establish our unity library. We are lucky to have a world class facility, newly constructed by a joint Marine Corps and Special Operations Command MILCON effort. Our Academic Instruction Facility contains a library room complete with book shelves and reading tables, but no books. Without your assistance...
