Surry County #1322, the Marine Corps League Detachment 1322 — Mt Airy, NC. The detachment dates to 1960, when veterans home from the Second World War and Korea wanted a room of their own and a way to keep serving after the uniform came off.
People point to the detachment for the Memorial Day observance and for the quieter help that never makes a program — Mt Airy. The members would rather be useful than famous, which is why the hall still smells like coffee on meeting night.
The regular meeting is 2nd Tuesday, 6:00 PM. Anyone planning to visit should confirm the night before they come, because a funeral detail or a weather delay can move it. Between meetings the members stay in touch the old way: at the hall, and through the officers listed on this sample site — Mt Airy, NC.

What the notebook says so far
Late summer the detachment looked back at the notebook.
