We can have all the weapons and equipment in the world, but #technology alone cannot win a fight.
#Marines do.
Spending time in the Middle East was a reminder that no matter how much #combat evolves, the individual #Marine will always be our most important asset.

Happy 251st Birthday, @USNavy!
For 251 years, the U.S. Navy has answered the call – sailing farther, fighting harder, and strengthening the maritime force alongside Marines around the globe.
Happy birthday, Shipmates!

Hello, Fall! 🍂
As the seasons begin to change, so does the pace of the Toys for Tots mission.
Across the country, local Toys for Tots Chapter Coordinators and volunteers are already hard at work preparing warehouses, organizing donations, and laying the foundation for another impactful Toys for Tots Holiday Campaign. While many people associate our mission with the holiday season, the work of delivering hope begins long before the first toy is placed under the tree.
Every pallet unloaded, every shelf stocked, and every volunteer who lends a hand brings us one step closer to creating joyful holiday memories for children in need.
The season of giving is almost here—and we can't wait to share it with you.
Stay tuned. ❤️🎁

Their Sacrifice Endures
On National POW/MIA Day, we honor the American service members who were taken as #PrisonersofWar and those who remain #MissinginAction.
We remember their courage.
We honor their sacrifice.
And we reaffirm our commitment to never leave them behind.
Until they are home, they are not forgotten.
