Marines invaded the Coto de Caza Golf & Racquet Club today for the Cox Communications Community Golf Tournament.
The tournament sold out, with 255 golfers teeing it up to raise funds for the Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund, including Master Sgt. Davey Lind, who lost both his legs at the knees.
"Through the support of the fund, my wife had the ability to leave her job at a moment's notice," said Lind.
Lind was one of several injured and un-injured Marines taking part in the tournament.
Several cast members from "The Real Housewives of Orange County came by to support the troops, too.
"I want to know if my top is Marine regulation," said Jeana Keough,who was dressed in a green blouse and black pants.
Gunnery Sgt. Brian Stirrat conducted an inspection of two of the Real Housewives, Keough and Tammy Knickerbocker on the tee.
"You ladies barely qualify as real housewives, much less Marines," said Stirrat during his inspection, eliciting a laugh.
Two Marine helicopters flew over the course and landed on the driving range during the opening ceremonies.
"It's great to see this tournament sell out in spite of the economy," said Duffy Leone, vice president and general manager of Cox Orange County.
Cox's non-profit foundation Cox Cares staged the tournament.
