Officially Licensed The Marines Since 1775 Patch — Embroidered Patch
Two and a Half Centuries of Answering the Call
Since November 10, 1775, the United States Marine Corps has stood ready to fight the nation's battles. This patch celebrates that unbroken chain of service — 250 years of Marines who have answered the call in every conflict, on every continent, and in every condition imaginable. From Tun Tavern to today, the Marines have never wavered.
The Marine Corps was born in a Philadelphia tavern during the American Revolution and has fought in every major American conflict since — the Barbary Wars, the Mexican-American War, the Civil War, the Banana Wars, both World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf War, and the War on Terror. Through all of it, the core identity of the Marine has remained constant: a rifleman first, trained for expeditionary warfare, ready to deploy on short notice, and prepared to fight upon arrival. The Marines Since 1775 patch represents this continuity — the knowledge that the Marine who stands post today carries the same commitment as the Marine who stormed the shores of Tripoli or raised the flag on Iwo Jima.
Perfect For:
Marine Corps veterans of all eras, active duty Marines, USMC birthday celebration displays, patriotic patch collectors, Marine heritage enthusiasts, and military history supporters
Since 1775. Every clime and place.
