the United States Marine Corps, founded on this day in 1775. Semper fi, Marines. A grateful nation salutes you.

236 years of saving the world. There are some things that you just can't be grateful enough for.

On a more personal note of birthdays and 1175, I've been alive for a few days over 1775 weeks (a couple of weeks over 34 years). Anyone have any ideas for how to celebrate 1776?

An opportunity I can't pass up to bring to attention an effort made by a small group of military wives to aid our wounded veterans in the Corp as well as the other branches of our armed forces. It's worth your time to read about their efforts, Semper Fidelis.
