Help Send Maurice — Marine Veteran & Law Enforcement Officer — to Forensic Recovery Training and Our Southeast Asia Mission

This Giving Tuesday, I’m asking for your help so I can continue a mission that has defined generations of Americans: bringing our missing heroes home.

My name is Maurice, and I am a U.S. Marine Corps veteran with multiple deployments to the Middle East, and a current law enforcement officer committed to service both at home and abroad. I recently joined Tours of Duty, a veteran-led nonprofit that searches for and recovers America’s POW/MIA service members from past conflicts — including Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.

In January, I have been selected to attend the Forensic Human Remains Recovery Course at Texas State University, one of the nation’s leading training programs. This advanced training will prepare me to deploy with Tours of Duty on our upcoming Southeast Asia Recovery Mission, where our teams will search for Americans still missing more than 50 years later.

I’m raising $4,500 to cover:

• Tuition and travel for the Texas State Forensic Recovery Course

• Deployment costs for the 2026 Southeast Asia mission

• Field equipment and required gear

• Mission support expenses

This work is done entirely by volunteers — no government funding, no paid staff. Every dollar helps get boots on the ground, search sites excavated, and families closer to closure after decades of uncertainty.

Why I’m Asking for Your Support

I’ve spent my career serving my country and my community. Now I’m stepping forward to help bring home those who never made it back — men who fought beside Marines like me, and families who deserve answers after generations of waiting.

With your help, I can put my skills to work on a mission that truly matters.

Join me this Giving Tuesday

Please consider supporting my $4,500 campaign so I can deploy with Tours of Duty and help bring our missing heroes home.

Every donation makes an impact — no amount is too small.

Thank you for standing with me, our veterans, and the families who still wait.

Semper Fi.
