In 1775, Congress (whatever passed for a Congress in the not-yet-declared-independent portion of the British empire in what is now the New England States) voted to raise two battalions of Continental Marines. Thus, 10 November 2016 is the 241st birthday of the military body that is now the United States Marine Corps. That's, like, old.
