    Hey All,
    I have an immediate call to action: Regarding the Scout Sniper Memorial being considered for the walk at Quantico.

    We achieve our mission through research to uncover the forgotten history of Marine Scout Snipers; by positively accounting for those who served as Scout Snipers and gave their lives for their country; and by engaging with and educating all Americans about the important contributions made by Marine Scout Snipers to our nation's defense. Our most urgent goal is to erect a suitable memorial to honor the memory of U.S. Marine Scout Snipers killed in action since World War I.

    We have a closing window to secure the artist before he gets pulled into a bigger project. In order to take advantage of the opportunity, we need to raise some funds before the door closes.


    So, we are asking for help, help to get the word out, help to raise the money... so if you know anyone who might be interested in contributing to the cause, building the memorial, please forward this email

    Contact Tim at the Heritage Foundation, [email protected]

    We can do more with less at the moment but, even less is more than the Foundation has, so if you know anyone, the deeper the pockets the better...

    The proposed Marine Scout Sniper War Memorial envisions a striking bronze sculpture of a two-man Scout Sniper team, blending historical eras to symbolize the passing of knowledge and sacrifice across generations of Marines. This monument, standing over 11 feet tall on a spacious granite pedestal, promises to be a poignant addition to the Semper Fidelis Memorial Park, located immediately adjacent the National Museum of the Marine Corps, to honor our war dead from all conflicts with deep symbolism and reverence.
