Six Decades of Preserving Traditions and Excellence
This year is important for the Lithuanian National Guard community abroad as we celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Juozas Daumantas Company based in Los Angeles, USA. Established on June 26, 1964, the group has been essential in keeping the proud traditions of the Lithuanian National Guard alive far from their homeland.
On September 14, 1965, the company was named in honor of Juozas Daumantas, a respected figure who embodied the values and bravery of Lithuanians. Under the strong and inspiring leadership of Vytautas Vyšniauskas, the group has expanded both in numbers and spirit. The members are dedicated to building unity and strength within the Lithuanian community, making sure the historical and cultural importance of their roles continues through generations.
Reflecting on the past six decades, it is evident that the Juozas Daumantas Company has been a symbol of resilience and pride. Their actions and programs have consistently strengthened the ties between Lithuanians worldwide, connecting geographic distances with shared customs and values.
This celebration focuses on both honoring the past and looking ahead. The Los Angeles Juozas Daumantas guards remain dedicated to maintaining the LNG’s rich heritage and motivating the next generation to uphold this important legacy.
We invite all our readers to learn more about these committed individuals and join us in recognizing their meaningful contributions to our community. As we mark this 60th anniversary, we recommit to the values that the Juozas Daumantas Company represents: bravery, loyalty, and maintaining our culture and history, wherever we are in the world.
