With the 100th Anniversary of the end of the war to end all wars just around the corner, it’s best to remind everyone that by 1918, the US Marines were fully employed, putting foot to Central Power ass, but when the Germans saw how hard the Devil Dogs partied on their birthday, they promptly surrendered the next morning. That’s right, the service that was founded in a Tavern is why we celebrate Armistice Day on 11 November.
Thanks for keeping the world safe Marines!
Happy birthday Continental Marines! Sorry USMC, you have to wait until 27 March for your party. The good news is you’ll celebrate your 225th in 2019.
Negative son. I and my fellow devils will be celebrating all day.
