Happy 229th, USMC!
Ladies and Gentlemen, please. If you see someone who was in the United States Marine Corps today, please with them a happy birthday. To quote the USMC website:
The United States Marines have defended and fought for the American people since before the Continental Congress approved the Declaration of Independence. Congress authorized two battalions of Marines on November 10, 1775 - the official birth of the Marine Corps.
Since its inception, the Marine Corps has celebrated a legacy unlike any other. Its force is rich in history and traditions - upholding three core values that are at the soul of its institution: honor, courage and commitment.
Semper Fidelius.
