104-year-old Marine continues tradition for Corps’ 250th birthday

On November 10, 2025, the United States Marine Corps celebrated 250 years. While the nation’s premier expeditionary fighting force was formed at Tun Tavern in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, a very special ceremony took place 170 miles southwest at the National Museum of the Marine Corps in Quantico, Virginia.

I've been to the Museum...it's well worth the trip! and to all my Marine Corps brothers and sisters, thank you for your service!
