Sergeants Davis and Dougherty USMC Memorial Shoot

In partnership with the 1/5 Vietnam Veterans Association, the 9th Annual Sergeant Davis and Dougherty Memorial Shoot will be held on September 28, 2024. The tournament proceeds will benefit the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation and the Sergeant Rodney M. Davis, USMC (Medal of Honor) Memorial Scholarship.

Co-Host for this event — 1/5 Vietnam Veterans Association

We are the combat veterans of the 1st Battalion of the 5th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division (1/5), who served during the Vietnam War. Our Mission is to support the scholarship needs of the children of U.S. Marines and Sailors. We also foster, encourage, and perpetuate the memory, spirit and comradeship in arms of the 1/5 Vietnam Veterans/1st Marine Division, and support the active duty men and women serving in “our” battalion and “our” regiment, and their families. The 1/5 Vietnam Veterans Association is a 501 (C)(19) non-profit corporation chartered in the state of North Carolina. All donations are tax-deductible up to the limits of the law. For any questions regarding the 1/5 Vietnam Veterans Association, or the Sergeant Dougherty Memorial shoot, please call Jim Latta at 610-909-6507.

*This event honors two American heroes, Sergeant Rodney Davis (Medal of Honor and Purple Heart) and Sergeant James Dougherty (Silver Star and four Purple Hearts). When their nation called, they answered.

We are pleased to announce that we have just about “sold out” all available opportunities for shooting participation in our event on Saturday, September 28, at LVSCs. However, there are a handful of slots remaining which can still be reserved on a “first come, first serve” basis. 

Those wishing to inquire about the remaining shooting slots may contact our Registration Chairman, Eddie Draves at e.draves130@gmail.com.

We do have unlimited access to our sumptuous BBQ luncheon and our very entertaining auction which follows the conclusion of the shooting competition. Register below for our non-shooter meal ticket.
