MAMARONECK, N.Y. (May 25, 2012) - Lieutenant Colonel Tyler Zagurski of Mercer Island, Wash., doesn't play as much golf as he'd like to. Most of his time and energy is invested in his role as commanding officer of the 1st Battalion, 9th Marines division. Even when Zagurski—whose military career spans over 21 years—found out that the membership of Winged Foot Golf Club invited his regiment to a golf outing at their storied venue, there wasn't much celebrating. He got right to work. It's the Marine in him.
