Pride of the Marines
by Ken Posney / The Garden Island
Sgt. Maj. Bud White (retired), a proud and highly decorated Marine, is known for his firm hand shake and warm smile. After being retired from at least 29 years of active service in Korea and Vietnam, the sergeant major looks as if he could still pass inspection. With the posture of a soldier and sharp-looking “dress blues,” White walked to each table, greeting other guests and award recipients at the Marine Corps League Dinner and Award Ceremony in the Veterans Center. He was one of several award recipients at the dinner.
