This page wouldn't be complete without a few pics of our friend, and recently retired 1st Sergeant, Eric Carlson. Eric was integral in helping us arrange the reunion and securing seating at 8th & I for the Evening Parade. Unfortunately due to his recent move to Hobbs, New Mexico, and he and his wife taking new jobs, he was unable to join us for the reunion at the last minute. I know from talking with him that he would have loved to been there with us in DC. Maybe on our next reunion we will be able to meet up Marine. Thanks for your 21+ years of service! Look fwd to seeing you soon!
