Navy-Marine Corps Relief Fundraiser
The 2013 Navy-Marine Corps Ball will be held on March 23, 2013, at the Washington Hilton in Washington, D.C. This ball has been held almost continuously every year since 1904. This is the major fundraising event in support of the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society (NMCRS).
All funds raised by this event are used to support the programs of the NMCRS. NMCRS assistance is available at Navy and Marine Corps bases located throughout the world and on board Navy ships.
The NMCRS goal is to increase the financial, educational and other assistance to active duty and retired Navy and Marine Corps personnel, eligible family members and survivors, when in need. The NMCRS invites you to join them in supporting our Sailors and Marines.
For more information about attending the ball, and/or making a donation to NMCRS, visit the NMCRS website at www.nmcrs.org. If you are interested in tickets for the ball, call the Navy-Marine Corps Ball Committee office at 202-889-8112/3, or e-mail navmcball@aol.com.

Christina,
Thank you for all your help over the phone today. Planning a Marine Corps Ball is a lot of time, energy and work.

You have been the easiest person I have ever dealt with since I have started MWR out here. You were very quick to respond to my every question and very knowledgeable about your work for an order over a phone that was my greatest experience. If you were in the Marine Corps Skylar I would write you up for a meritorious promotion. I will surely write it in my books to pass the word to the next MWR rep to continue the membership with you guys.

Jessica,
Thank you so much for taking the extra time and making the extra effort
to ship another hat to me for my husband last week. The second hat
arrived last Thursday... and he was tickled with it. Although it may be
"only a hat" it is a very special hat in many ways. He will always be a
proud Marine dad, and your kindness is very much appreciated.
My Name is Sergeant Major Juan. M. Hidalgo, Sergeant Major of the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) out of Camp Pendleton, CA. Sergeant Major (Ret.) Frank Pulley is one of my mentors and is someone that I have a tremendous amount of respect for. The MCA and SgtMaj Pulley do a phenomenal job in helping us recognize our Marines and Sailors and they continually demonstrate that they are always more than ready to support; anytime...Anyplace! And on behalf of the entire 13th MEU, I thank you very much!
I'm so pleased to see all the great merchandise you are stocking and the awesome promotions. Your store was dissappointing a few years ago and I shopped only at Sgt Grit.
Now, I can find what I am looking for with you guys.
Great job!
Colonel Ford, I have to pass this on because I'm in shock that I was able to Connect (on the first Ring), Chat and concluded my business with "Sharon" in less than 30 seconds, at the MCA-Office. I was taken by surprise. Why, I'm Not used to anyone answering the phone especially on the first ring. AND...a human being...a lovely lady with a disarming voice, which at first I thought was a recording. WOW! I commend THE MCA for doing such an outstanding service for its members...make me proud. Just think...I was not asked "if I knew my parties Extension."?
Wish I had a Blog...I would spread around how delighted I am. What transpired to me today is Rare, just doesn't happen anymore. See, I'm so impressed I'm blitzing you here.

I want to relay my many thanks to everyone at Marine Corps Association and Military Historical Tours for providing me the opportunity to experience such a wonderful trip to Russia. Had I not won this trip through MCA I may have never taken advantage of such fantastic travels. The group, the Russian Tour guide (Oleg Alexandrov) and Charlie Dunn were wonderful companions during the trip. It will be a memory I will cherish all of my remaing days on this earth.
Again, Many thanks and Semper Fidelis!
Ma’am,
Just wanted to let you know that I got the sword yesterday with time to spare. It showed up unscathed due to the excellent packing job despite the rough postal process. And most importantly it looks great and the Bahraini’s couldn’t be happier! Thanks again for all of your assistance.

I received my blouse last Friday and want to thank you for your efforts
in getting things done. Also, please thank the tailors involved in
making everything right and please give my sincere thanks to those who
made the decision to make the necessary corrections at no charge to me.
That in itself says a lot about your organization. The blouse fits
like a glove and actually looks and feels like new.
Thank you and all the staff who had a hand in correcting a problem and making an old man happy. Semper Fi
Sincerely,
Just a quick note of thanks to Patty Everett. I arrived home from a week vacation to find a package from the Marine Corps Association. I was expecting to find one of the magazines I requested, however, I was pleasantly surprised to discover both magazines were inside. In a time when it seems no one cares about customer satisfaction I am gratified to discover that customer service is not a lost art at the MCA. Once again I thank you for your efforts on my request. It may have been thing but the effort made a huge impression.

Sir/Ma'am: I am a Marine
Sir/Ma'am: I am a Marine having served sometime ago in a place that since have possibly faded from Memory except for those of us who served during the three year time frame of that engagement. For those of us who served We were all of the same opinion We didn't realize Hell was so Cold. Having said that as a mere intro I must now move to the purpose of this message. I am desirous of an Address of a Marine now serving in either of the two Hot Spots at the Moment.I am wanting to send an APO Box as I have in the Past to someone quite close to me. He did his time in Iraq with an MOS of 3531 same MOS I had some time ago. Please provide an Address to a Company Commander in the Engineers.
