Santa visited VFW Post 1603 on Minot Avenue, Auburn, and brought five Marines in their dress blues to assist him in presenting gifts. While Santa and the Marines were at the post, Commander Bill Bradbury, VFW national recruiter, signed up four of the five as life members. The men are Iraq War veterans. From left are Bradbury, Sgt. Joseph Catino of Skowhegan, SSgt. Chris Singley of Sparta, Ga., Santa, Sgt. Frank Pellerin of Bangor, SSgt. Ricky Devita of Miami, Cpl.
