Book Signing and Question/Answer Event at Quantico Dec. 6

Gen. Al Gray, 29th Commandant of the Marine Corps and Chairman of the Potomac Institute's Board of Regents, will join author and Marine Vietnam Veteran Scott Laidig Dec. 6 at the Quantico Officer Club to discuss the writing of the first volument of Gray's biography.

The event is hosted by The Semper Fi Fund, a non-profit set up to provide immediate financial support for injured and critically ill members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families.  Since establishment in 2004, Semper Fi Fund has issued more than 65,000 grants totaling more than $83 million to over 10,600 of our heroes and their families.  All donation proceeds will directly benefit the Semper Fi Fund.

Author Scott Laidig says the book is relevant and timely now, as much because of the enduring example of Gen. Gray's leadership and his signficant accomplishments in an austere budget environment, as well as his continuing commitment to military men and women, and their families.
