Smith family - US Marine Corps Marathon
Mark Smith, served in the Royal Navy from 1979 – 1985 as an A/B(s) on HMS Exeter, Leander and Victory.
On October 30 2011, Mark, his daughter (Louise), son (Neil) will be running in the US Marine Corps Marathon in Washington DC hoping to raise funds for the Falklands war memorial, dedicated to those servicemen who died during the 1982 conflict.
For my Canadian friends a £5 donation is approximately equal to $8.50CDN Details about this fund can be found at www.sama82.org.uk
