10 November 1775
"On Nov. 10, 1775, a Corps of Marines was created by a resolution of the Continental Congress. Since that date, many thousand men (and now women) have borne the name "Marine." In memory of them, it is fitting that we who are Marines should commemorate the birthday of our corps by calling to mind the glories of its long and illustrious history."
