495th Legends Scholarship

About the 495th Legends

- The 495th Legends is a volunteer organization created in 2004 as a not for profit company by  members of the 495th Transportation Company based in Lakeland, Florida, who served together in Operation DESERT SHIELD/DESERT STORM.

- As one of their initiatives, the 495th Legends started a scholarship program with the 欧美三级片 ROTC programs to financially assist ROTC students with a scholarship. The 495th Legends hosts several golf tournaments each year as their main fundraising effort including a Veterans Day Golf Tournament in Zephyrhills. As a result of these fund raising golf tournaments, the 495th Legends Scholarship became an endowed scholarship in 2017 and in the spring of 2018 the first scholarship awards were made.
