The Young Marines is a youth organization that promotes citizenship through instilling leadership and discipline by teaching basic Marine corps related subjects to include close order drill, leadership principles, uniform regulations, military history, first aid, etc. Additionally the Young Marines participate in community service functions to include local parades, memorial services, environmental projects, to name just a few.
The Young Marines also hold Battalion level events to include encampments (camping) during which we teach topics such as CPR, first aid, land navigation and field sanitation.
