Maj. Gen. Paul Kennedy, commanding general of Marine Corps Recruiting Command, addresses the crowd at the Community Leaders Reception Sept. 5, 2017 in Detroit. Marines with the Marine Corps Recruiting Command arrived in Detroit Sept. 4, 2017, to begin a series of outreach events, beginning what will become an enduring City Partnership. MCRC City Partnerships seek to align the Marine Corps with cities that share the essence of Marines - an irreducible fighting spirit. Scheduled events included High School visits supported by the Silent Drill Platoon, a Community Leaders Reception, a photography competition showcasing Detroit's fighting spirit, youth basketball and wrestling clinics, three on three basketball tournament, a cooking competition featuring an Expeditionary Field Kitchen, and more. MCRC leveraged existing partnerships with USA Wrestling, Women's Basketball Coaches Association and local contacts in the city to create events in celebration of the emerging partnership. Other City Partnerships in development include Baltimore, New Orleans, Chicago, Dallas, and Oakland, California.
