We recognize December 13th as the birthday of the National Guard. On this date in 1636, the first militia regiments in North America were organized in Massachusetts. Based upon an order of the Massachusetts Bay Colony's General Court, the colony's militia was organized into three permanent regiments to better defend the colony. Today, the descendants of these first regiments - the 181st Infantry, the 182nd Infantry, the 101st Field Artillery, and the 101st Engineer Battalion of the Massachusetts Army National Guard – share the distinction of being the oldest units in the U.S. military. December 13, 1636, thus marks the beginning of the organized militia, and the birth of the National Guard's oldest organized units is symbolic of the founding of all the state, territory, and District of Columbia militias that collectively make up today's National Guard.

All of the Heros, Volunteers, and Board Members would like to give a HUGE THANK YOU to our breakfast provider during our events...
Please help us in saying THANK YOU to McDonald's in Port Clinton. They donate a portion of our order and make it so our Heros can get a grab & go breakfast as they are getting up early to get on that beautiful body of water to fish! Partnerships like this make it so that our event runs smoothly and our Heros have less to worry about during their event with us, ALL FOOD IS PROVIDED. Our event really strives to provide our Heros with a "come as you are, relax and heal" feel, and with the help of the hard working individuals that each do their part- we get to provide just that!
Thank you Port Clinton McDonalds!! ... See MoreSee Less

Mike Sears he is a silver star and you should include his son
On Sunday morning, December 7, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service attacked the neutral United States at Naval Station Pearl Harbor near Honolulu, Hawaii, killing 2,403 Americans and injuring 1,178 others. The attack sank four U.S. Navy battleships and damaged four others. It also damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, and one minelayer. Aircraft losses were 188 destroyed and 159 damaged.
Today is a day to remember the attack on Pearl Harbor... Today will mark the first year that the Pearl Harbor Rememberance Ceremony in Hawaii will not feature any of the survivors. There are currently only around twelve survivors and this will mark the first year that none of them have been physically able to make the trip.
We remember.
As an organization, these are the individuals who we are here for- the individuals who are the heros among us. Thank you to all the Pearl Harbor Heros, living or resting eternally... We salute You! ... See MoreSee Less

We are going to make a new deal that if you buy $200 even if it’s in separate purchases, we will send you a hat and one of our coins. You could purchase tickets online at w4wh.com/store-home/ or hit the donate button and send us a check to our mailing address. We really appreciate the support and know that your donation will go to the heroes. ... See MoreSee Less
