The Quartz Hill Young Marines unit and their commander, Mr. C. Chinchilla graduated class #1701 on April 22nd 2017. Fourteen youths endured the rig- ors and high demands of recruit train- ing. Some have never been exposed to such military standards, tough physical fitness and taught what respect actu- ally is but these fine, young individuals (now a team) have adapted and have formed into what the Young Marines are all about. Though new to the program, they have become part of an organization that will live in their bones for the rest of their lives. All thanks go out to the birth of the YM organization and the volunteers that make this happen in each community.
