The United States Marine Corps was created on November 10, 1775 by a resolution of the Second Continental Congress. There are currently just over 203,000 United States Marine Corps active duty Marines, and just under 40,000 reserve Marines.

Anyway….since we missed October 13th (because this blog hadn’t been born yet), we’ll celebrate today as Navy Day with this lens from clouda9:
