Mid – Winter Conference 2027
Message from Our National President:
It is an honor and a privilege to represent the Marine Corps League Auxiliary and, in turn, our Marines.
My journey began when I attended my first Marine Corps Birthday Ball with my Marine, known to a few of you as my father, Keith Kuhne. He was a proud Marine and very active in his Detachment. His love, dedication, and respect for this organization and for Veterans were instilled in me throughout my life. I suppose I come by it naturally, as my husband and son are both Army Veterans.
My membership started 29 years ago as just that, a membership, but it has grown into something much more. I now belong to a family of individuals who share a common goal: helping and supporting others.
I truly appreciate the trust and confidence you have placed in me, as well as all the support I have received throughout this journey. It is an honor to serve as your National President. I have taken an oath and solemnly promised, upon my honor, to carry out the duties of my office, and I will do everything in my power to fulfill that commitment.
I want to emphasize that this journey is not mine alone; it is ours. No one person can accomplish this alone, but together we can and will achieve great things.
I am excited to announce that we now have a new webpage that will allow us to share updates and news in a timelier manner. I also encourage you to explore the new Resource Center on our website. This will serve as a convenient location for members to access valuable information, including job descriptions, mini training videos, and S.W.A.P. (Sharing Wonderful Auxiliary Projects). Our goal is for the Resource Center to continue growing as a helpful tool for our Units. Please note that it is not intended to replace our bylaws or administrative procedures.
The start of this new year has already been successful because we have an outstanding team of members who have stepped up to contribute in various ways. I look forward to embracing new ideas, exploring different approaches, and learning from one another as we work together toward our shared mission.
As Henry Ford once said,
“Coming together is a beginning; staying together is progress; and working together is success.”
Semper Fi and God’s Blessings,
Mary Brief
