Please consider donating! On November 18th, 2020 Master Gunnery Sergeant Charles “Chunks” Padilla and his family lost their home and all of their belongings in the Mountain View wild fire near the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center at Bridgeport, California.
This is a call for all Recon teammates, supporters and family members and Americans who recognize the sacrifices people like MGySgt Padilla make to keep us safe to raise funds to support this great American and his family.
He has spent his entire adult life serving our Nation in peace and in war. He has also dedicated his retired life to supporting others, to include serving as an advisor to the Marine Reconnaissance Foundation Board of Directors.
Chunks is a brother, teammate and a significant figure in the Marine Reconnaissance Community. He is also a plank owner of Marine Corps SOCOM Detachment-1 (MCSOCOM DET-1), the origin of today’s Marine Raider community. For those that know him, you know that he would never ask for help….so the Marine Reconnaissance Foundation is doing so on his behalf. It is time to live the Recon Creed and support our brother and his family.
We have spoken to Chunks and he is aware of this effort and has given his reluctant approval for it. Please donate if financially able and share with your friends and family.
Never above you Never below you Always by your side

In today’s world of pampered athletes who complain about their pool cover colors, use PEDs and generally act like pampered jerks by claiming that “Money doesn’t make me, I make money” (Floyd Mayweather), it is awesome to see an athlete who believes in using their wealth to help others. I am not a huge Hockey fan but I saw this article and had to comment. WOW. this man is a true hero. P.K. Subban of the Montreal Canadiens’ is not just a great player but is donating $10,000,000 to the Montreal Children’s hospital! Major respect to Mr. Subban! Thank you!! Go Habs Go!
