OUR STORY
Alton “Doc” Coleman is a U.S. Navy veteran who served from 1982-88 as a Fleet Marine Force Corpsman with the 3rd Marine Division. In 2017 he joined the Marine Corps League, and today serves as a Past Commandant of Unicoi Detachment 783 and the Jr. Vice Commandant for the MCL's Department of Georgia.
His wife Tammy, a retired high school math teacher of 30 years, serves as Adjutant and Paymaster for Detachment 783. Through their involvement with veteran service organizations, they have witnessed the difficulties some organizations face with fundraising.
In 2023 they set out to establish a foundation that could assist Detachment 783, whose programs emphasize veteran support with Home, Health and Wellness, Education and Food Security.
