E.T. BRISSON
Detachment #063 was named for one of the original charter members.
E.T. Brisson was several times commandant and also held many state MCL offices. He was a WW II Marine who fought on Okinawa. He was a road builder in Collier County, FL and many of the roads here were built by him.
The large lake visible from the I-75, as you pass Pine Ridge, E.T. dug and owned for various road building purposes.
ET's son built the Iwo Jima Float for the Detachment, which was intended for a one-time appearance. It is still being used today and was one of the prominent floats in the Naples 2010 Fourth of July parade.

E T Brisson #063 Detachment was charted in 1972 and has remained an active & viable group since that time. Some of our current members joined as charter members and are still active in Detachment functions. Over the years, the Detachment has become an effective & respected organization within Collier County & the Veterans community.
Our Detachment policies and actions have always been directed by our pride in being Marines, and with that as our focus, we have gone into the community of veterans & the community as a whole and sought to be of some assistance to those less fortunate than we.
