Marine Corps Association & Foundation

As some of you may know, I have many friends who are former British Royal Marines. This weekend, one of them, Dave Lilburn, and five others took up a daunting challenge. They pulled a 700 pound sled some 60 miles from London to Brighton in an effort to gather toys for the children of Royal Marine Commandos who had been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Prior to the actual pull, they had already been incredibly successful, raising money and gathering gifts. Their commitment to the task at hand was complete.
