In June (2025) , the Army will celebrate 250 years of service, so they will be just ahead of the Marines, who will have their 250th anniversary in November of this year.
I have been reading that the Army is already planning a large celebration, and will be having their 250th Anniversary parade on June 14th, so this month will be a good month for Army vets to celebrate.

Best wishes to the US Navy's sister service. Haze Grey and underway to get you Leathernecks where you need to go for two and a half centuries.
If anyone has any grandchildren talking about becoming a Marine, please ask them to start their strength training now. It will help them a great deal. The Marines put a lot of emphasis in basic training on strength when going through the physical portions of their training. But, don't take my word for it.

The Spousal Equivalent always wears a NAVY ballcap and frequently an old Marine comes up and says, "Thanks for the ride".
