NEW YORK -- A joint service color guard representing Marines, Coast Guardsmen, soldiers, airmen, and sailors appeared at The Soldiers’, Sailors’, Marines’, Coast Guard & Airmens’ Club’s Salute our Veterans ceremony in Times Square, here, Nov. 9. The SSMCA president, William McShane, told the gathered crowd that this was an opportunity to publicly thank the “brave, fearless people that put their lives on the line to protect our freedom.” The club was founded in 1919 to provide a respite for service members of the World War in Manhattan. By 1937 they were the only New York City institution dedicated to the welfare of enlisted troops. They have hosted more than 3 million service members in their midtown hotel.(Marine Corps production by Sgt. Randall. A. Clinton / RELEASED)
