The United States Marine Corps 236th Anniversary

It’s the 236th anniversary of the United States Marines. And what a history this famed corps has. One only has to read their hymn:

U.S. Marine Corps Hymn (Marine Hymn)

From the Halls of Montezuma

To the Shores of Tripoli;

We fight our country's battles
In the air, on land and sea;

First to fight for right and freedom

And to keep our honor clean;

We are proud to claim the title of United States Marine.

Our flag's unfurled to every breeze

From dawn to setting sun;

We have fought in ev'ry clime and place

Where we could take a gun;

In the snow of far-off Northern lands

And in sunny tropic scenes;

You will find us always on the job--

The United States Marines.

Here's health to you and to our Corps

Which we are proud to serve In many a strife we've fought for life

And never lost our nerve;

If the Army and the Navy

Ever look on Heaven's scenes;

They will find the streets are guarded

By United States Marines.

Notice the shores of Tripoli. Glenn Beck had a conversation with David Barton about our long standing war against an ideology that has been a thorn in our side since the founding:

Our oldest national monument is a tribute to those who fought against these barbarians:

Take notice of the last four lines of the Marine Corps Hymn:

If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven’s scenes;
They will find the streets are guarded
by United States Marines

And without a doubt Islam free.
