What Do Marines Do?

My VIPs for this week are the U.S. Marine Corps that celebrated it 250th anniversary on Saturday, October 18, 2025. There are five branches of military: Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Space Force. History tells us that the Army travels on land, and the Navy sails on the seas, while the Marines go from the sea onto the land.

Vice President J.D. Vance, Second Lady Usha Vance, and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth traveled to Camp Pendleton on Saturday where both the Vice President and the Secretary spoke to the Marines. Olivia Pero reported on the events in her article published at The Daily Signal. 

Prior to Vance’s address, some Marines gave a demonstration in which they stormed Camp Pendleton’s beaches. The celebration included other demonstrations, including an amphibious assault, Navy SEALs jumping into the ocean during an amphibious capabilities demonstration, and more.
