Perch Base Submarine Veterans (USSVI) Joe Trotter and Dan Marks installed four new ASSM Memorial Brick Pavers on January 17, 2024 at the Arizona Silent Service Memorial (ASSM) in Wesley Bolin Memorial Plaza in front of the Arizona State Capital building. Joe Trotter is the Treasurer and a Board Member of the ASSM Foundation Committee, a 501(c)3 Organization, as well as Treasurer of Perch Base Submarine Veterans USSVI. Dan Marks is the Perch Base Webmaster.
Thank you for the generosity of those that bought new ASSM Memorial Brick Pavers, which support the upkeep of the ASSM Memorial:
Bob Saenz: 8" X 8" brick
Tim Haueter: 4" X 8" brick
Kelly & Jill McLaughlin: 4" X 8" brick
Barry Wyatt & Marriah L. Dobbins: 4" X 8" brick
It may not seem like a lot of work, but it took Joe and Dan about 2 hours to pry out old (blank) bricks, prepare the underlying surface, and install the new ASSM Memorial Brick Pavers.
