John and Judie Gordon would like to thank the Marion American Legion for giving John the opportunity to go to Boys' State 2001. He truly enjoyed his experience there. 'We thought the members of the Post would like to know that John has joined the Marine Corps under the delayed entry program. He ships out on August 12. Joining the service has been what John has wanted since he was 9 or 10 years old. Going to Boys' State 2001 gave him further encouragement to do so. Thank you for giving the students of Marion this experience.'
