Serving Marines and friends in Alachua County
The Gator Detachment is made up primarily of Marine veterans and friends. We formed in Alachua County in 1998. Our members are from Gainesville, Alachua, Archer, High Springs, Keystone Heights, Hawthorne and other surrounding towns. Our members were Marines and Corpsmen of WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom, as well as peacetime Marines. We are men and women. We were grunts, logistics, artillery, admin, supply, operations, cooks and many other MOS's, but we were all riflemen and Marines. We now exist to serve not only as a group where Marines of all eras bond together, but unite in efforts to do things for our community. Joined with us are men and women who were not Marines but choose to serve beside us, helping us in our missions. Check us out.
2022 BIRTHDAY BALL
The 2022 Birthday Ball was held on 12 November 2022 at the Best Western Gateway Grand. It was a great event. We owe so much to our sponsors who provided the funding to put on this great celebration for the 247th Marine Corps Birthday. Our 207 guests were treated to a traditional ceremony, a plated dinner, live entertainment, raffles and dancing. Our Guest of Honor was the Marine Corps League Department of Florida Commandant Scott Westervelt.
