The US Marine Corps has been a symbol of pride for our nation for 240 years, sacrificing greatly for their countrymen and always regarded with honor and respect.
While known for their bravery in combat, Marines often don’t receive the recognition they deserve for their charitable efforts outside of military service, particularly when it comes to helping children.
Toys For Tots, founded by Major Bill Hendricks, USMC, in 1947, began as a small initiative to provide toys for less fortunate children but has since grown into a nationwide program with increasing donations each year. As Christmas approaches, Toys For Tots needs our support more than ever.
In the iconic 1997 Christmas commercial titled “Guard Duty,” a heartwarming moment unfolds as an adorable boy approaches a stoic Marine on duty. Despite their disciplined demeanor, the Marine’s reaction to the child is priceless. Watch and consider sharing this piece of American history for a good cause.

Mystery Deepens: Pregnant Teen Found Dead in Woods After Vanishing with Stranger!
Mia Campos, a 16-year-old girl who was pregnant, disappeared in Georgia. Sadly, she has been found dead.
Mia was expecting her first baby, due in the fall. People got worried when she left her parents’ home with someone they didn’t know on July 14th and didn’t come back.
The police in Gwinnett County, Georgia received a report early on July 15th that her body was found in a wooded area near the road.
According to PEOPLE magazine, a family member used a phone app to find Mia’s body. The medical examiner later confirmed that she was killed.
\Last Wednesday, police arrested Mia’s ex-boyfriend, Jesus Monroy, for lying to them. But they haven’t said he killed Mia.
Campos’s family says that Monroy is the father of the baby Mia was going to have before she died. According to 11 Alive, Mia’s parents, Miriam Zarate and Edward Campos, found their daughter’s body just minutes from their house.
“I found my daughter lying face-down,” Edward said.
“It was really tough. I knew something was wrong – her lips, her bleeding nose.”
He added: “We somehow ended up there, and because I didn’t have a flashlight, I just used my phone. Then I said, ‘She’s right there.’ It just broke my heart. Thank God that I found her.”
As per reports, Mia was the youngest of five siblings. Her unborn child, a boy, was expected to be born in September. She had planned to name him Sebastian.
Miriam and Edward told Fox 5 that Monroy was with them for two days after Mia’s death.
“We keep praying every night and that’s why he came with his parents. That’s why I was shocked when they sent me the notice. I was like, ‘Wow,’” Edward explained.
We sincerely hope the person responsible for Mia’s murder is found and apprehended.
