As many of you know this past week the Marine Corps celebrated its 235th Birthday. The Marine Corps Birthday represents many things to Marines and the Marine Corps. The Marine Corps Birthday represents our history, tradition, and sacrifice. It is a time to honor those Marines who have gone before us, and a time to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Every year the Commandant of the Marine Corps give a Birthday message. This year’s message is centered on the Marine’s that have fought in Korea, Iraq, and Afghanistan. The theme of the message is “Every Clime and Place.” “Every Clime and Place” should be interpreted that Marine Corps have and will fight in every climate and place, under any conditions, and are willing to go anywhere our country needs us. “Every Clime and Place” is a phrase out of the Marine Corps hymn.
Happy Birthday Marines
