I'm Tracy Della Vecchia, and I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to the MarineParents.com volunteers. This web site could not exist if it were not for the contributions of hundreds of parents around the United States. Our 60+ volunteers have taken that one step further and contribute endless hours answering emails, moderating the message boards, researching information, and supporting the parents, spouses, family and friends of our United States Marines. The dedication to the Marine Corps from each of these individuals benefits thousands of families around the world.
Words can never express my gratitude to each of them. Thank you, to each of the volunteers, for your tireless commitment on the web site, MarineParents.com: a Place to Connect & Share!
