🇺🇸🪿 MEET PVT. HONKINGTON — REPORTING FOR DUTY! 🪿🇺🇸

As many of you know, Chester the Bulldog is the official mascot of the Young Marines! 🐾 But even Chester needs a little backup!

While he’s already a familiar face around our unit, we figured it was time to formally introduce the community to Chester’s feathered sidekick, Pvt. Honkington! 🫡

Pvt. Honkington has a very important assignment — DESK DUTY! Each week, he proudly greets our Young Marines as they check in and out of drill.

His responsibilities include keeping an eye on attendance, maintaining order at the desk, and, of course, reporting back to Chester whenever necessary! 🐾

He may not be the fastest marcher, and his uniform might fit a little differently, but he takes his duties very seriously!

🪿 Help us give Pvt. Honkington a big community shoutout! He’s been part of our unit for a while, but now it’s time for everyone to meet the goose behind the desk!

And remember… Chester is still in charge! 🇺🇸🐾

🎨🎭 UNIT COMMANDER… WE HAVE QUESTIONS! 😂🇺🇸

Our Unit Commander told us he was attending the Department of Indiana Marine Corps League Fall Conference last week… 👀

But judging by this picture, we’re starting to think these conferences are just a cover for ART CLASS AND DRAMA CLUB! 🎨🎭🤣

We love having fun and sharing a few laughs at each other’s expense! 😂❤️

All jokes aside, we hope our Unit Commander had a fantastic time! 🇺🇸👏

Now… what extracurricular activity will he be attending next?! 🤣

🇺🇸 HONORING VETERANS & MAKING A DIFFERENCE! ❤️🤍💙

Last week, the Kentuckiana Young Marines and Scott County Young Marines had the privilege of attending another Bluegrass Honor Flight!

This time, our Young Marines weren’t only there to show their appreciation and thank our veterans—they were also spreading an important message about living a healthy, drug-free lifestyle through Drug Demand Reduction (DDR).

They passed out all of their DDR activity books and red bracelets while sharing the message with others throughout the event. We’d definitely call that a WIN! 🙌

We are proud of these Young Marines for honoring our veterans while continuing to make a positive impact in our communities! 🇺🇸
