7. 50th Anniversary Commemorative Coin
National Montford Point Marine Association, Inc.
50th Anniversary Commemorative Coin
Twenty years following World War II, during August 1965, a reunion was organized by a group of enterprising Marine veterans and active duty Marines from Philadelphia.
The purpose was to renew old friendships and share experiences of former comrades who received recruit training at Montford Point Camp, Camp Lejeune, New River, N.C.
This group, chaired by then Master Gunnery Sergeant, Brooks E. Gray, USMC, held a meeting in Philadelphia, Pa., and formulated and developed plans for a National Reunion.
The response was overwhelming and 400 Marines from all over the country convened at the Adelphia Hotel in Philadelphia.
Consequently the Montford Point Marine Association, Inc was established as a non-profit Veterans organization and was subsequently chartered in Pennsylvania in 1966.
Brooks E. Gray (founding father) was elected as the Association's first National President.
