Marine Corps

Marines GalleryOn November 10, 1775 at Tun Tavern, a unique group of men were formed into a force called the "Marines." Beginning as shipborne soldiers, the Marine Corps has become part of an air-ground team that is capable of responding rapidly to any situation. Its purpose is to close with the enemy and destroy them by fire and maneuver.

 

Many other historical facts about the Marine Corps and their participation in the Pacific Campaign of island hopping can be found in this exhibit.
