The Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon performs in Times Square, Manhattan, New York, to celebrate the Marine Corps' 244th birthday, Nov. 10, ahead of Veterans Day. The 2019 New York City Veterans Day Parade, which marked its centennial anniversary, honored the Marine Corps as its featured service. Formed Nov. 10, 1775, as naval augment forces capable of fighting both at sea and on shore, the Marine Corps has secured freedom in every major conflict America has faced. Together, the Navy-Marine Corps Team enables the joint force to partner together and operate on behalf of national defense in this era of great power competition. Steeped in the core values of honor, courage and commitment, Marines bring moral, physical, and intellectual strength to every situation. When their time in uniform is done, Marines use those qualities to continue to serve their communities.
