Capt. Guy Zierk, District Injured Support Coordinator (DISC) for the Marine Corps Wounded Warrior Regiment (WWR) and retired Marine Gunnery Sgt. Travis Brill paid a special visit to retired Marine Sergeant Shurvon J. Phillip on May 23, 2014. This visit was extremely special for Sgt. Phillip, a combat wounded Marine and the son of an immigrant family, as the Marines were there to install a new flagpole and flags to fly in honor of the upcoming Memorial Day holiday. Through the WWR, the Marine Corps provides life-time support to wounded, ill, and injured Marines and their families, and continues to support Marines once they become veterans through regular outreach calls from the Sergeant Merlin German Wounded Warrior Call Center and face-to-face support from District Injured Support Coordinators. Through the outreach calls and face-to-face support, the regiment is able to support veterans by conducting needs assessments, connecting them to resources, and aiding them in achieving their long term recovery goals.
