Marine Corps
Traditions
Founded in 1775, the United States Marine Corps shares its legacy with that of the United States of America. Intrinsically bound, the Marines have fought battles throughout time to defend our constitution, protect our people, and to stabilize the world in times of crisis.
Some people spend their life wondering if they made a difference. Marines don't have that problem.
― Ronald Reagan
The Birthday
The Marine Corps birthday is a celebration of the fighting spirit. Older than our Nation itself, the Corps reminds itself and our Nation each November 10 of a brilliant history of battles fought and won. Just as importantly, we celebrate the Marines—past and present—who won them.
A Promise Forever Kept
Battles aren’t won solely on the field. Battles are won within by those with a fighting spirit. The same fighting spirit that flows through the veins of every Marine. This commercial is an ode to all Marines and the battles they’ve won.
Battles Through Time
Since its inception, the Marine Corps has developed innovations, perfected fighting tactics, and honed their fighting spirit to win pivotal battles that protect our nation.
Stories of Distinction
While every Marine deserves an Ooh-rah, there are a select few who set the bar a little higher.
