Commandant's Birthday Message
As the 243rd Marine Corps birthday draws near, @GenRobertNeller reminds us how the Corps' legacy lives on in every Marine.
“It was an honor to be your leader, you made my job easy.”
Yesterday, Sgt. Maj. John Canely became the 300th Marine to receive the Medal of Honor. His Marines to this day remember his selfless actions that kept them alive in combat.
Today we were honored to have SgtMaj Canley at Marine Barracks Washington to present his Medal of Honor flag and celebrate his contribution to our Corps’ legacy. Vietnam-era Marines led, trained, and raised so many of us. We are forever grateful for these Marines. S/F
