U. S. Marine Lance Corporal Darren Kuenzli, 20, received a party in his honor at the American Legion Saturday morning. Kuenzli was greeted in the parking lot by a flag line and well wishes from veterans and military supporters. Kuenzli is awaiting his military orders to soon deploy to Syria.

His mom and stepdad, Amy and Tony Fowler, were also on hand to watch Kuenzli get showered with gifts from local groups including PGR and ALR riders, Military Moms, VFW and American Legion Ladies Auxiliary, and a thank you from Mayor Mark Nexsen for his service.
