The 248th Marine Corps Birthday Message
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 сен 2024
- On November 10, 2023, U.S. #Marines around the globe will celebrate 248 years of success on the battlefield and reaffirm their commitment to our Corps' proud legacy of honor, courage and commitment.
This year, the Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. Eric M. Smith and Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps Carlos A. Ruiz remind us all that Marines are professional warfighters who have earned their reputation of discipline and lethality in the crucible of combat.

#USMC248
Best decision I ever made in my life. I led Marines in combat. Very little in life can match that. I'm a Marine until the day I die. Semper Fi.
I will challenge that statement and say "you are a Marine forever brother".
Semper Fi
Super Semper my brother. USMC and an 03 forever!
oohRAH!

"We're Marines till we die, and we require a two-week notice for that".
Motivated the hell out of me!
That made me laugh. . . because it is so true! I am so proud of my husband's military service.

No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy.
Marines have so far been the most intense, professional and reliable individuals I've met while in the military.
It’s because we have integrity and mental illness. We are great.
@@TransgenderTalkTimemental illness is the best way to say it. Ooraahh
The funny thing is that the worst people I know and have met are Marines as well 😂
@@socalspeculator8965 there are bad apples in every group
part of Force Design 2030, the Corps has made changes, such as shedding heavy gear like tanks, upgrading to longer-range weapons, building a web of sensors, empowering small unit leaders, investing in the lift and logistics to support distributed operations, and more.
Though Force Design 2030 generally has found acceptance at the top levels of the Defense Department and in Congress, it sparked an extraordinary - and public - backlash from retired Marine leaders.
Several retired generals penned opinion essays decrying Force Design and urging the Marine Corps and Congress to halt the overhaul, which they said would leave the service less prepared to confront a range of crises.
Happy birthday USMC!
Much love from the ROKMC.
Komapsumnida, Marine! Kamsamnida.
Semper Fi to the ROKMC
Trained with the ROKMC in Korea..awesome experience at Camp Nightmare…they were pretty bad ass themselves…Semper Fi 🫡

제가 한국 해병대에서 복무할때, 미해병대와 연합훈련을 한적이 있습니다.
같이 훈련하며 여러가지 이야기를 나눴고, 여러가지 전리품(전투복, 체육복 등) 교환했습니다.
어디로 입대를 해야할지 고민하고있는 미국인이 있다면,
저는 무조건 해병대를 추천합니다.
전장에서 서로를 믿고 싸울 수 있는 최고의 동료가 옆에 있다는것을 느끼게 될것입니다.
With respect from the ROKMC

My son is retired from the USMC. He speaks very highly of ROK Marines. His opinion is that YOU are the mightiest of all. Thank you! Semper Fi

Happy Birthday DOC. You're one of us.
Nice work Doc Pecker Checker, me too!
Semper Fi Devil Doc!
Yes, "We are Marines until we die and we require a 2 week notice for that" is the most hardcore statement I have heard uttered in a long time.
Happy birthday, Marines. Army soldier here, always recognized that marines are built different than the other branches. Just one look at them and you can tell they are made of tougher stuff. Anybody who is honest will admit that.
Love the Army, always treated as with respect. Gunnery Sergeant Castro 75/96 and thank you for bring my son home safely from the Middle East. He’s a Soldier and I can’t be more proud.
We are all on the same team. Much respect to all who served, Semper Fi.
One team one fight brother
Thank you Army , that means alot to this old Marine, now if I could get my oldest brother (Navy) and my youngest brother (Army) to admit this , I told them they had a choice, haha ! Thank you !

My father was a marine , my step father was a marine, my older brother was a marine, I was a marine, spent 19 months and 28 days in Vietnam with the twelve marines . My son was a marine 0311 , fought in Iraq. My only regret is that I didn’t stay in . Simper Fi and happy birthday Marines

Welcome home brother.
Thank you for your service.
Welcome Home, brother. Your family has an incredible legacy. Semper Fi and Happy Birthday! Rah!

Happy birthday Marines from royal Thai marine corps 🇹🇭🇺🇸
Semper Fidelis, Marine. Your partnership in Thailand is invaluable.
Semper Fi, bro... Yaataah Abinoo...Ariz.USA
Lt Calvin was my platoon commander in Fallujah. He took that round while communicating targets to hit with our 60MM mortars. He was part of the forward observers that would radio to us on targets or areas we needed to drop on. On that day, he was almost directly across the street from us standing up yelling and pointing at targets. The fighting was intense and loud and the radio was difficult to hear and convey what he was seeing, so he exposed himself to enemy direct fire to relay his coordinates to us. He took that round and we succeeded in suppressing the enemy and sending many of them to hell in a combined arms assault a young Marine can only dream of. Lt Calvin was one of, if not the best, Marine I had the pleasure to serve under. A true leader, he once carried a 240G on a 2-3 hour foot patrol in July or August in Iraq. Marines like Lt Calvin are Esprit de Corps. Semper Fidelis and Happy Birthday, Marines!
I have only one regret when I was in the Corps. I never attended a Marine Corps Ball. If you’re active, make sure to attend. Happy Birthday Hard Chargers!!!
They were a lot of fun. Semper Fi.
You can still go...
Contact part of the marine corps league or something, they should be able to join you up with a nearby one if you can’t find one yourself. Plenty of college rotcs hold them as well for obvious reasons
You'd better make it to one when you can. I've only got a year and a half left. If you don't make it to one by then, you're coming to my retirement Marine Corps Ball!
@@DougGreen1987 that's wtf I'm talking about
As a Corpsman with 3rd Marines in Vietnam 68-69, thank all of you my Marine brothers for working so hard to keep me alive so I could work hard to keep you alive. We became a family, still are and always will be. You are the best of the best!! Semper Fi
Fuckin oorah doc! You’ll always have a special spot in our hearts.
I love you Doc!
Semper Fi
ooh rah Doc
I could never have made it as a Marine, but my son did. Semper Fi to all those past and present who made the cut.
Don't join any armed forces, don't throw away your life rich people or, suffer PTSD and disablement the rest of your life for RTX Corp stock to increase.
Look how vets are treated, "migrants get housing before them and no one hires them. Stop glorifying war, it's visuals of human suffering will ruin you.
The Marines are a joke. It's filled with fatties and trannies. You would have done fine.
You *raised* a Marine and that's pretty darn impressive!
@@juliekostas7322 I truly appreciate your kind words.
You raised a Marine. Nuff said
My grade school gym teacher (79 to 81) Marvin Glick was a marine on Iwo Jima he was a good man and got me interested in history I went to Iwo Jima in 2005 brought back sand and placed it on his grave 🇺🇸
Just a frikkin civilian here but God Bless the Marine Corps. The finest fighting force the world has ever seen. You reinforce the belief that the best days of our country are still ahead. You make me proud to be an American. Thank you all for your service and sacrifices for our country. Thank you to the families of our Marines for your sacrifices too. From a Vietnam veteran PJ’s son. I understand the families sacrifices, and they are huge too.
With all that’s going on in the world and division in our country, it’s nice to hear some positivity every once in a while. Thanks.
You are the reason we joined. Not everyone is cut out to be a marine
Thank you for the support. That’s why we joined
THANK YOU FOR YOUR APPRECIATION!!!
Freedom ain't phuckin' free!
Retired. Love my Corps, but I love my Marines even more.
Continue to serve honorably, mentor those young Marines, and always do what's Right.
Semper Fi to my Brothers and Sisters.
URAH!!! WE LOVE YOU TOO!!!
Semper Fi Marine !!!!
Rah!!

I took the pledge and enlisted last year on nov 10th. I never thought I would've done so much and made it this far. I'm glad I made the decision I did. OORAH
I made that same decision in 1997 and im 49 years old now.. Best decision of my life.. I am 100% service connected with SMC special monthly compensation.. I have a 8300 a month income now.. if I hadn't made that decision I wouldn't be 49 years old with a 100k a year income. And I wouldn't have the discipline.. I always wonder what my life would have been like had I not made the decision to become a Marine. I've been out since 2001.
Simper Fi! Stick with it Marine!
Retired. Lucky. Never got hit. Carry on Marine.
Fuck yeah!
"We are Marines till we die"
My body recieve goosebumps 🥶🥶
And the 2 week notice... True heros
We are Marines forever.
No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy.

Happy Birthday to all the Marines. . . Past, present, & future.
On December 29th 1979 I reported to Platoon 1001, A Company, 1st Battalion, Parris Island SC, and I was changed forever. I earned the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor, and at 64 I proudly wear it on my shoulder. As Marines we stand shoulder to shoulder with the ghosts of heroes. Semper Fi, do or die. God bless our Corps.
Just 9 more days! Semper Fi. 🇺🇸
2004-2012 served the Marines. Proud to the bone. I may be fatter and older but I am still a proud Marine. Now serving in the national guard and still hold my Marine corps ethos
Not as lean but just as mean! Semper fi brother!
Ooh rah to that. I got out in 2008. ...definitely not in the shape I was when I got out ha ha. Semper Fi.
My first Marine Ball was at Ft Leonard Wood, MO back in 1983. I stood Honor Guard for our 208 Birthday. Semper Fi my brothers and sisters
To my Marine Corps brothers and sisters. Happy Birthday to all y'all!!! It was my PRIVILEGE to have served alongside you brave brothers!!! Not once did any of you back away from the enemy!!! Y'all earned my undying respect, loyalty and, love for all eternity!!! I only wished I could've done more to help y'all bring more of your fellow Marines home, vertically!!! I'm sorry for letting y'all down!!!

Stay safe, stay strong
Lol
Stay strong and sharp, my brother and sister Marines. It seems war is coming.
Semper Fi brothers and sisters. Once in, never out, never forget who and what we are nor why we do it.
I was released from active duty July 27, 1957, a Korean Marine but I'm still here and still a Marine.
Happy 248th Birthday to my fellow Brothers and Sisters. Semper Fi.
Semper Fi bro
Happy 248th, USMC. Much respect from former USAF.
Thank you for the birthday wish, PlasmaCoolantLeak, and thank you for your service in our USAF.
Joined 1969 right after graduation, felt I owed this to this great country. Assigned to helicopter unit thru70_71. Never take freedom for granted. My faith in God and Marines family got me thru tough times. Our prayers for General , Commandant .
Happy birthday my Brothers. Though I wear the army uniform now, every soldier I've met, knows I'm a Marine. If any of you ever need help, just let me know and I will be there. Sempi Fidelis
Happy 248 Marines. Lots of love, a Navy sailor.
And thank you for your service, too, helljumper5601
IT WAS A PRIVILEGE AND HONOR TO SERVE IN THE GREATEST FIGHTING FORCE IN THE WORLD. SEMPER FI TO THE BOTHERHOOD TODAY AS WE CELEBRATE AND REMEMBER OUR HERITAGE. EARNED , NEVER GIVEN! SSGT L. USMC 1980-91
Means more to me than anything I have ever done or will do- Becoming a U. S. Marine. I have accomplished so much but nothing measures. Nothing - Happy Birthday Brothers and Sisters. Semper Fi ! "96-03"
Happy birthday to the Marine Corps! God bless each and every Marine
Happy Birthday, Marine.
My grandfather was a Chosen Reservoir survivor from "Operation Tootsie Roll" and went on to serve 3 more tours in Vietnam... Retired as a Gunnery Sergeant... Purple Heart recipient and all around AMAZING man!! Without our Marine Corps our nation would NEVER have the freedom that makes us WHO we are!! For that we are TRULY BLESSED 🙏🙏. Semper Fi and happy birthday Corp💪
As a young man who aspires to become a Marine after college, this just deepens my inspiration to levels indescribable. Almost like a trailer to a good hyped film. My grandfather fought with the Army in Korea back in 1950 at the age of 18, and later became a Marine himself, it’s because of the men like him, and those who gave their lives for the Americans back home that I am motivated to fight for something greater than myself.
~Thank you to all Marines for your service, and I will be joining you in 2030.
I went in after college. One of the best decisions I made.
Best of luck in achieving this goal! No easy road is worth travelling down. S/F

I got myself into a bad situation where we were attached with a national guard unit taking care of business. I was told this later by one of the people in my charge that a few of the guardsman pointed me out and asked what kind of preworkout I use. They told them "that's just a marine". That fire the corps forges into you keeps you alive. People notice it. Happy Birthday Marines. Thank you to the Corps for the gifts you keep giving me and my brothers and sisters.
This got me moto af! I'm a proud mom of a Marine ❤

This was a great message. Semper Fidelis to all you Marines and Corpsmen out there.
To those Marines that are in the infantry, keep your sword sharp. Don't let the day by day games impact your motivation. Remember why you joined. You never know the day you may be called to cross the line of departure. God bless you all. Rah!

Happy Birthday Marines, the very best mobile lifeguards the Army ever had! (Kidding, you guys might just be the absolute best on the planet.)
I was blessed to attend the 200th Birthday Ball, and I'm sure many of today's Marines will attend the 250th. I was stationed in Philadelphia and got to see the groundbreaking ceremony for Tun Tavern. Every time someone thanks me for my service, I tell them it was an honor, and it was.
🎉🎉🎉Been out awhile still celebrating with the brother I enlisted with an served a full contract with,still both proud vets of the Corp
8:53 really got me you can see it on his face the pride of carrying that tittle, joining the corps best decision I’ve ever made
I hear all the time an individual say I was in the Service. When you hear a marine answer that it’s always “I am a marine “ ! God bless our Marine Corps! Happy birthday to every Marine Past, Present and Future! Once a Marine always a Marine!
Happy 248th Marines!
Happy Birthday Marines and God bless you all. Each and every one of you are examples of the best of our country. I’m proud to live in a country that produces such men and women. Thank you for your service and your sacrifices and thank you to your families for their support and sacrifices. From places like Belleau Wood, Guadalcanal, and Betio, to Chosin, Hue, Fallujah and so many more, Marines have been at the knifes edge to keep our country safe and stand for the values our nation. Dignity, Integrity, Honor, these are the kind of words I think of when I see a Marine. You represent the best our country has to offer and my heart swells with pride to know you are out there. You probably don’t even understand the magnitude of your contributions to humanity because you’re so busy trying to save the world. I shudder to think what the world would be like without the United States Marine Corps. May your next 250 years be as honorable and glorious as the past 248 years.
Happy Birthday Marine brothers and sisters! We have always balanced a fine line between tough and crazy - we flirt with it. Oooorah!
From a USAF Airman, Semper Fi and Happy Birthday to the toughest of us all, the USMC!
Happy Birthday to my fellow Marines. I am proud of our past, and proud of the future where I am no longer in the ranks of Marines, but I am still a Marine in everything I do. Semper Fi!
I served as a reporter/photographer in the Corps. I can tell you something that really sets the Marines apart from everyother military organization..."Saltieness" the definition of which is shared amoung only the eleite fighting men and women everywhere. Boiled down to it's essence Saltyness translates to " Win or lose,live or die, I will fight well"
Happy Birthday, Marines!
