Happy 233rd birthday Marines!!!!

From the halls of Montezuma, to the shores of Tripoli,
We fight our country's battles in the air, on land and sea.
First to fight for right and freedom, and to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to claim the title of United States Marine.

Our Flag's unfurled to every breeze from dawn to setting sun.
We have fought in every clime and place, where we could take a gun.
In the snow of far off northern lands and in sunny tropic scenes,
You will find us always on the job, the United States Marines.

Here's health to you and to our Corps, which we are proud to serve.
In many a strife we've fought for life and never lost our nerve.
If the Army and the Navy ever look on heaven's scenes,
they will find the streets are guarded by United States Marines.

Semper Fi and happy birthday from a Brother Doc.

Gotta love a service founded in a bar, where the bar owner is a recruiter.

They've been misguided ever since. ;)

Happy freaking Birthday to you Jarheads!! :D

Despite the inter-service rivalries, I've always felt that we were all brothers-in-arms (especially since I started out as Infantry). And if I were ever in need of rescuing I'd like to rather it come from the guys from SOCOM (Delta, SEALs, PJs, Air Commandos, etc.) and/or the Marines!! :)

To my brothers that are no longer with us, and those of us that feel it every day-
If you are able, save for them a place inside of you and save one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go.

Semper Fidelis, to my last breath.

Very well said. Be sure to raise a glass, and remember absent companions.

Happy birthday, my brothers.
