My Apologies
To those who have sent
their names and additional
information, that I have
not yet added.

This project has become
very large and though I
work on it almost every
day, it is impossible
for me to keep up.

I will continue to add the
names and information as
quickly as I can.

Thank You All
For Your Support

Marine Detachment 1982 - 1983
U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE

U.S.M.C. Globe & Patch
83 Cruise Patch

"Sir, this is my third haircut this week . . ."
Color Guard, Honor Guard, Seargeant of the Guard,
Unrep Supply Guard, Payday Line Guard Security,
that is the primary mission of the
Marine Detachment aboard the INDY.

In this role, they man sentinel posts over designated
weapons spaces and provide a powerful reaction
force capable of instant response to any situation.
This is clearly evident if you ever have been run
over by a charging marine when the security alert
team is called away. In additon to their security jobs,
the MarDet operates the ship's brig and provides
honor and color guards for visiting dignitaries and
various ceremonies. Led by two officers, this
seperate command also maintains a constant
training program with typically Marine subjects
as the sylabus. With all their security and other
duties, these busy young men are
a vital asset to the INDY.
