Happy Birthday U.S. Marines


Happy Birthday wishes go out today to the U.S. Marines, established this date in 1775.

The United States Marine Corps (USMC) is a branch of the United States armed forces and is responsible for providing force projection from the sea, using the mobility of the U.S. Navy to rapidly deliver combined-arms task forces. Administratively, the Marine Corps is a component of the Department of the Navy, but it acts operationally as a separate branch of the military, often working closely with US Naval forces for training, transportation, and logistic purposes.

This is a big day in the Marine Corp with parades and celebrations all over the world. I think the best present we could give them is to bring them all home.
