USSVI Creed

USSVI Creed: "To perpetuate the memory of our shipmates who gave their lives in the pursuit of their duties while serving their country. That their dedication, deeds and supreme sacrifice be a constant source of motivation towards greater accomplishments. Pledge loyalty and patriotism to the United States of America and its Constitution."

First Coast Base was well represented at the Vets-4-Vets Quarterly Gathering on Saturday February 29, 2020. The event was held at the Vystar Veterans Memorial Arena and the theme for this gathering was to honor our Vietnam Vets. A special thanks goes out to Semper Fidelis Society, the five area Veterans Councils, the numerous Veteran Support Organizations (VSO) and Vystar for a wonderful event We also want to thank the MOAA Northeast Florida Chapter for once again allowing us to share their information/recruiting table. We talked with several potential members and we look forward to seeing QMC (SS) Robert McLean at our March meeting.
