Goal
As we approach our $100,000 goal, we will still be accepting donations to further enhance the exhibit on behalf of VMO-6.
This campaign is for the VMO-6 Group to fundraise to support the development of an exhibit at the Flying Leatherneck Aviation Museum. This is a group of alumni of Marine Observation Squadron Six (VMO-6) consisting of both officers and enlisted Marines, who desire to memorialize the squadron's fifty-seven (57) year legacy developed during its operational years between 1920-1977 and post deactivation. Memorialization will include the use of VMO-6 aircraft, its squadrons and overseas initiatives, and the associated personnel via the development of exhibits for display at the Museum.
Notice:
All donations received for this campaign will be used to support the designated project or initiative. In the event that funds raised exceed what is needed, or if circumstances prevent the completion of the campaign as described, remaining funds will be directed to the organization’s general fund to support our ongoing mission and programs.
