The adopted sons of Burlingame, another proud <br /> City who recently passed a Resolution adopting a sister unit of HHC through ASA <br /> national program and we were happy to leam took first place award Parade Grand <br /> Marshall MAJOR Shawn Phillips also honored the Peninsula Celebration representing <br /> this elite Division also knows as the famed Screaming Eagies. <br /> As you know, ASA acts as liaison between U.S. military units and American <br /> communities desiring to provide morale support to our servicemen and women stationed <br /> at home or deployed. This unit has indeed a proud history, and served a major role in <br /> Iraq and although they are presently home based at Ft.
