November 10, 20214 yr Author Ever wonder why he Army, Navy and Air Force don't celebrate their birthdays? It's a big deal in the marines. Usually the oldest and youngest Marine on the post cut the cake and then there's ball in the evening for all the Marines, wives, girlfriends, and guests. Noel The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.

November 11, 20214 yr Thanks Noel I remember well spending the 200th anniversary of The Corps while dining at the Monterey Peninsula Country Club in 1975. A most memorable night. I never knew that many stars could fit on that many shoulders.
