"Happy Birthday U.S. Marines"

On this day in 1775, at Tun Tavern in Philadelphia, the United States Marine Corps was founded. Initially set up as a form of naval infantry, the Marine Corps has since gone on to be seen as the most disciplined, committed, and honored fighting force in the world.

Here is a special video message (and history lesson) from the Commandant of the Marine Corps to the few and the proud on this 232nd birthday of the U.S. Marines.

Happy Birthday to the first ones in, and the last ones to leave.
