245th Marine Corps Birthday Message

Today, as we celebrate our 245th birthday, we must remember who we are, where we came from, and why we’re here. We value the sacrifices and contributions of every Marine and Sailor, as well as our family members without whose support we would not be able to accomplish our mission. And we remain committed to being our Nation’s Expeditionary Force in Readiness that sets the standard for honor, discipline, and courage. I am proud of each and every one of you. Happy Birthday, Marines!
