Happy 235th birthday, USMC!
Since 1775, the United States Marine Corps has been winning battles and defending our nation.
On what marks the 235th birthday of the Corps, I want to say that I am proud to be the daughter of two amazing Marines. I am proud of my amazing niece who is serving our country today. I am proud of all my family and friends who’ve served in the past and who will serve in the future.
Thank you for your service and thank you for protecting my freedoms.
I am just so amazed by those that serve our country. First of all, I hate being told what to do, so the military would be a hard transition for me. But I just love the selflessness that must go into deciding to serve your fellow countrymen. And the willingness to take orders. What a sacrifice, truly.
