Peter Freeman Memorial Scholarship

Background

For over 29 years Captain Pete Freeman was the heart and soul of the initial Reunion called the Retired Aviation Supply Marines (RASM). Captain Freeman was always an advocate, and encouraged the Reunion to encompass all Aviation Logisticians. Subsequently, his wishes became a reality, and the Reunion name and purpose were changed to Aviation Logistics Marines. This Scholarship has been established in his name as a continuing reminder of the legacy of Aviation Logistics. The organization is now a Marine Corps Aviation Association member as the Don E. Davis Squadron. This scholarship is available to all dependents (Wife, Husband, Children), or Grandchildren, of Aviation Logisticians (Aircraft Maintenance, Aviation Ordnance, Avionics, or Aviation Supply), who are active duty, reserve, retired, or former Marines.

We are looking for a Few Outstanding Students out there in our community that has earned, through hard work, to be rewarded for their efforts. So take advantage of a Great Opportunity and allow the Don Davis Squadron to help someone obtain a good education!

Thank you to the families of these students for supporting them and encouraging them to apply.
