Marines new and old attend luncheon
Lance Cpl. Samantha P. Bowling, administrative clerk with Marine Forces Reserve, sits with retired Marines from the Marine Support Group at Andrea’s Restaurant in New Orleans, April 10, 2016. Young Marines had the opportunity to spend time with Marines who served in WWI and WWII and hear about their experiences in the Corps. Through the ages, Marines young and old, regardless of gender, religion or race, all share a common bond through the eagle, globe and anchor that each wears proudly across their heart.
