MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR SAILORS, MARINES, AND THEIR FAMILIES Greetings from the Secretary of the Navy n behalf of all Sailors, Marines, and their Ofamilies, I wish to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society. Your selfless dedication and tireless commitment continue to make a positive impact on the mission readiness of our Naval Services. From the number of active duty and retired Sailors and Marines who received financial assistance, to the number of contacts made by visiting nurses to Navy and Marine Corps homes, the Society’s presence, day in and day out, around the globe, means our military leaders have an important partner to help address the financial well-being of our fighting forces. The Society’s mission is only accomplished through the generosity of donors because they appreciate military service, understand the sacrifices military families endure, and recognize that emergency situations are most likely to arise when a service member is deployed. Given this realization, donors, through their generous gifts, have always met the needs of active duty and retired Sailors and Marines facing financial hardships. It is your collective actions for which I am thankful. I am proud of the partnership, rich history, and tradition “...the Society’s presence, day we share with the Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society. in and day out, around the globe, means our military Sincerely, leaders have an impartant partner to help address the financial well-being of our fighting forces.” Ray Mabus BOARd OF dIRECTORS Admiral Jonathon W.

The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society contributes directly to the readiness of our forces through the tireless efforts of its employees and volunteers. For 109 years, the Society has bridged the gap when our Marines, Sailors, and families needed financial assistance in getting through tough times. This assistance eases some of the burden of difficult times and allows our Marines and Sailors to focus on the mission at hand. In 2012, the Relief Society provided more than $41 Million dollars of support to our families, all made possible by the employees, countless volunteers and donors who graciously give their time and resources for the benefit of others.

Harmon was one of several distinguished Army officers to come from the Harmon family. His father graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1880 and later served as Commandant of Cadets at the Pennsylvania Military Academy. Two older brothers, Kenneth and Millard, were members of the West Point class of 1910 and 1912, respectively. The former served as Chief of the San Francisco Ordnance District during World War II; the latter reached flag rank and was lost over the Pacific during World War II while serving as Commander of the Pacific Area Army Air Forces. Hubert Harmon, born on April 3, 1882, in Chester, Pennsylvania, followed in their footsteps and graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1915. Dwight D. Eisenhower also graduated in this class, and nearly forty years later the two worked together to create the new United States Air Force Academy. Harmon left West Point with a commission in the Coast Artillery Corps, but he was able to enter the new Army air branch the following year.
