Broward Law Enforcement #549, the Marine Corps League Detachment 549 — Dania Beach, FL. The detachment dates to 1955, 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 — Dania Beach. The members would rather be useful than famous, which is why the hall still smells like coffee on meeting night.
The meeting line says 3rd Thursday, 6:00 PM, which is the rhythm the directory lists. Come for the business, stay for the people. The portraits and the posts here are sample material, standing in until the detachment writes its own — Dania Beach, FL.

Showing up for a Saturday of hall repairs — Dania Beach
By spring the hall had a Saturday of hall repairs underway. Nothing about it was complicated. The Detachment 549 set a date, split the jobs, and showed up. A few neighbors who are not members came for the afternoon and stayed to ask about the next meeting — Dania Beach.

What the notebook says so far
Late summer the detachment looked back at the notebook. The honor detail had been out more than once, the community table had fed a crowded room, and the officers reminded everyone that the next business meeting is 3rd Thursday, 6:00 PM. This note is a sample of how the detachment might tell that year — Dania Beach, FL.
