November 10th is a day of great significance for Marines everywhere: it’s the Marine Corps' birthday! This occasion isn’t just about cake and camaraderie; it’s a full-blown celebration filled with pride, tradition, and plenty of laughs. So, dust off your dress blues and get ready to chuckle as we explore the lighter side of this momentous day!
The Origin
The Marine Corps was established at Tun Tavern in Philadelphia on November 10, 1775. Yes, you read that right—our beloved Marines were founded in a bar! So if you’ve ever wondered why Marines love to celebrate with drinks, now you know! It’s practically in their DNA. Just picture the founding fathers sitting around, likely a bit tipsy, saying, “Let’s start a military branch!” Cheers to that!
1. "Brace Yourself ... Marine Corps birthday is coming!"
Yes sir..we're ready.
2."Don't try to out-drink a sailor. You will only end up as a meme."
Come on mate, just one more drink!
3. "Sometimes, you gotta be harsh"
Maybe not every time.
4."Happy Birthday to you"
Oorah!
5."The legend.."
The one and only Chesty Puller!
6. "You know we gotta throw in the USMC Profile Pic in honor of the Marine Corps Birthday Tomorrow!"
This lady knows her business.
7."Marine Corps shenanigans are soon to commence.."
Here it comes again.
8."What's the big deal? It's just a birthday."
No. It's not.
9."From the Revolutionary War to the digital age, Marines have always answered the call."
Why this doggo looks so angry, we wonder.
10. "Time to get ready for the next Big holiday"
Come on, don't be afraid.
11. "Be sure to check on your Marine friends this week. They are not ok."
This is getting very hard to control"
12. "Keeping the celebration light this year."
This is all they need today.
13. "You're not going to change your profile picture to you in uniform this November."
The inner conflict
14."Trump doing his part"
He just wished that the cap had not fallen from his head.
15. "Happy Birthday"
Well, this one is a bit cruel.
For many Marines, the highlight of the birthday festivities is the annual Birthday Ball. Imagine this - Marines decked out in their sharpest uniforms, enjoying fancy dinners, and dancing so hard that even the most stoic sergeant can’t resist busting a move.
And let’s not forget the cake-cutting ceremony - where they ceremoniously slice into a cake using a sword! Nothing says “military precision” quite like cutting cake in style.
And then there’s the toast! As everyone raises their glasses to honor the Corps, you can expect some heartfelt speeches mixed with a few hilariously exaggerated stories.
