Pound Membership

 

 

The Military Order of the Devil Dog (The Order), the FUN and HONOR SOCIETY of the Marine Corps League, is comprised of only regular members in good standing of the League who have been recommended for membership by two members of the Order. Each member undergoes a series of initiations.  First, as a Pup, in their Pound (the local organization, the basis of the Order); then, as a Devil Dog in their Pack (the State organization which meets during a Department Convention); and, finally, as a Pedigreed Devil Dog at the SUPREME GROWL held in conjunction with the National Convention of the League.

 

Members of the Marine Corps League join together in camaraderie and fellowship for the purpose of preserving the traditions and promoting the interests of the United States Marine Corps.  They effectively promote the ideals of American freedom and democracy, voluntarily render aide and assistance to all Marines, FMF Corpsmen, and FMF Navy Chaplains and former Marines, FMF Corpsmen, and FMF Navy Chaplains (including surviving partners and orphans); perpetuate the history of the United States Marine Corps; and by fitting acts observe the anniversaries of historical occasions of particular interest to United States Marines.
