FREEDOM IS NOT FREE The Marine Corps - Law Enforcement Foundation provides financial aid for education, special needs, and care for children of U.S. Marines, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Drug Enforcement Administration, Immigration and Naturalization Services, Customs Bureau, Secret Service, Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Bureau, the U.S. Marshals, Naval Criminal Investigative Service and Federal Air Marshal Service. It also awards U.S. Treasury Bonds to children of U.S. Marines and federal law enforcement employees killed in the line of duty. Special consideration may be given to state, county and local law enforcement officers. This Foundation was formed in February of 1995 by a group of former Marines and federal law enforcement officers met and sought a vehicle to assist the children of Marines and federal law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty. We wanted to do it in a way that would have an immediate life changing effect on the surviving parent and the children who, in most cases, lost their father. That was the beginning of the Marine Corps Law Enforcement Foundation. Our Mission Statement is the same as it was back in 1995 and has not changed: DHS “TO ENCOURAGE THE SPIRITUAL, MORAL, INTELLECTUAL AND PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN THROUGH EDUCATION.

    Advocates for Harvard ROTC . Telephone: (978) 443-9532 11 Munnings Drive Email: [email protected] Sudbury, MA 01776 5 June 2020 From: Captain Paul E. Mawn USN (Ret.) To: Advocates for Harvard ROTC Subject: Post WW2 military veterans among Harvard alumni (H-1920 to present) Harvard graduates have a long proud history of serving as warriors in the United States military. During the Korean War, 60% of the Harvard classes served in the US military but only 23% of the class of 1963 served in the US military (note: the % of military veterans in other classes since the Korean War have not yet been validated. I suspect the % of veterans in the late 1950’s & early 1960’s were similar to 1963 participation level but was slightly higher during the late 1960’s and early 1970’s as the Vietnam War heated up. Due to the anti- military policies of the Harvard administration and the expulsion of on campus ROTC programs, the mid 1970’s saw a precipitous drop in the number of patriotic Harvard graduates who elected to do something beyond their own self-interest by serve our country in the US military. Thus over the past 4 decades, less than 1% of Harvard graduates are military veterans of whom about half were commissioned through the ROTC programs based at MIT. However recently, Harvard has recently taken a proactive positive posture towards the US military. As result, ROTC participation at Harvard has been steadily increasing with over 1.3% the Harvard class of 2023 serving as midshipmen or cadets and a significantly higher % accepted for the class of 2024.
