249 years of proud service to our nation

🎉 Happy 249th Birthday, Marine Corps! 🎉

Today, we celebrate 249 years of Marines—past, present, and future—who have exemplified the values of honor, courage, and commitment. From the first to call themselves Marines in 1775 to the dedicated Marines of today, the spirit of the Corps lives on in each of us.

Today, we honor Marines past, present, and future—whether you're still in uniform or have transitioned to civilian life. The Marine for Life Network is here to support every Marine and Marine veteran, ensuring you have the resources, connections, and community to thrive, no matter where your journey takes you.

The Marine Corps isn’t just about the uniform. It's about a bond that lasts a lifetime. Once a Marine, always a Marine.

Semper Fi! 💪

We've got some Fourth of July trivia for you today! that while July 4, 1776, was the date the Continental Congress formally ratified the text of the Declaration of Independence, the 13 American colonies actually voted to be separated from Great Britain on July 2, 1776? The Declaration of Independence itself wasn't signed until August 2, 1776.

D-Day
June 6, 1944

Eighty years ago tomorrow, Allied troops landed in Normandy, France, in a historic operation known as D-Day.

But why is it called D-Day? And what does the "D" in D-Day stand for?

There isn't agreement on this topic, but you can get some insights from this article from The National World War II Museum: https://www.army.mil/e2/downloads/rv7/d-day/the-meaning-of-dday-fact.pdf.
