Happy Independence Day! The Lewis & Clark Young Marines proudly marched in the Hillsboro, Oregon Rotary 4th of July Parade this morning. Our heartfelt thanks go to the local Elks lodge for providing us with delicious donuts and refreshing water, which gave us the energy we needed for the event. While waiting for the parade to start, we had the pleasure of meeting and playing games with the Tualatin Valley Young Marines, our neighboring unit. It was a fantastic opportunity to bond and have fun together. Oorah!
