Any Marines passing through northern Arkansas(on the way to Branson, MO, maybe) might want to stop at the Marine Corps Legacy Museum, in Harrison, AR. Interesting place to visit, whether you were a Marine or not.

I got a Question November 10 1775 the USMC was born, then disbanded and resurrected in 1798.
All the USMC traditions as code of Honour, what a Marine is, was inherited from whom? or who are they Modeled from.

NO, I read that and I just Developed a Stiff upper lip. LOL Even The British Royal Marines
copied everything from them. They train and are attached with the USMC or US Forces on a yearly bases.
This and a few other reasons, is why I will always have a special place in my Hart for the US Corps.












"By Land Or Sea" we are 1st Marine Corps!

What the hell does Sgt. Peralta have to do with the original question? Are you trying to say that he's some how connected to the Spainish Marine Corps? Based on a Latino surname? Peralta was a naturalized United States Citizen, of Mexican birth.

Spin it how you want, but the USMC traces it's heritage and some of it's traditions to the British Royal Marines, you can argue with a Brit Bootneck as to who he traces his heritage and traditions.

Nothing at all, Since this is the History about the US Corps and you have him constantly posted on your MSGs
I decided to inform others Why, and of his Heroic Gallantry, which is worthy of mention.

Just a heads-up Spanish is a language, and many Spanish speaking countries have Marine Corps.

You can argue with the Brites yourself, I already know the Truth and all the facts in this matter in hand.
La Infantería de Marina España started in 1537 and all Marine Corps of all Country's in the World are a Mirrored Image of them.
Even the British 1664, which in fact are 97% all Spaniards incognito. Therefore the Brits are almost 100yrs behind schedule.

La Infantería de Marina España was 1st, all the rest just fallowed their example and traditions " What is to be a Marine".
Even the USMC, God Bless!

Sergeant Rafael Peralta (April 7, 1979–November 15, 2004) assigned to 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division,
III Marine Expeditionary Force, was a United States Marine killed in combat during Second Battle of Fallujah in the city of Fallujah, Iraq.
In September 2008, his family was notified that he was awarded the "Navy Cross", the second highest award a United States Marine can receive.
On September 17, 2008, Rafael Peralta's family was notified by LtGen. Richard Natonski that he would not receive the Medal of Honor,
but the Navy Cross instead, the service's second highest award for valor. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates rejected the Marine Corps'
recommendation, concluding that his appointed panel unanimously confirmed that his actions did not meet the standard of "without any
possibility of error or doubt". The central argument posed relates to whether the already mortally-wounded Peralta could have intentionally
reached for the grenade, shielding his fellow Marines from the blast. In a Marine Corps investigation of the attack, Natonski said,
"I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt" that the gravely wounded Peralta covered the grenade. The decision is "almost like somebody
called me a liar," said Marine Sgt. Nicholas Jones, 25, who was with Peralta that day. Jones, a recruiter, said Peralta's actions have become
part of Marine Corps lore, as drill sergeants and officer-candidate instructors repeat it to new Marines. "His name is definitely synonymous with valor,"
said Jones, who was wounded by the grenade blast. "I know for a fact that I would have been killed … Peralta had been shot in the head before he
covered the grenade, a Marine investigation said. The report concluded he was hit by a ricochet that likely came from the gun of another Marine while
they were clearing insurgents from a local home. After he was wounded, the report said, Peralta scooped an insurgent grenade under his body,
absorbed the blast and died, according to five of the Marines who were with Peralta during the firefight.

Secretary of Defense Robert Gates I believe unanimously you and your panel are an error of doubt. You should bow your heads in Shame!


Sgt. Rafael Peralta 25yrs old.

No sh*t? Verdad? I'm well aware that Spanish is a language, I'm also well aware that many Spanish speaking countries have Marine/Naval Infantry, your not posting a revealation here studdley.

I also realize that language of this forum is english, so I see no reason to post the name Infanteria de Naval, or Infanteria de Armada Naval or any other variation of the Spanish term. They become Spanish Marines, Argentinian Marines, Mexican Marines etc, it's called english language translation......Live with it.

I've got no reason to argue with the Bootnecks, if they want to trace their lineage thru the SPANISH MARINES, they can that's up to them. The published USMC traces it's lineages thru the Royal Marines...NO mention of the Spanish Marines.

La Infantería de Marina España was 1st, all the rest just fallowed their example and traditions " What is to be a Marine".
Even the USMC, God Bless!
So good great your the first yippy freakin skippy!!! Doesn't mean your in my lineage.

Just because they Published it doesn't mean their right. Plus the reason they did that is because the Yank's are
descendants from The British, Remember you were British Before! The British Copied the Spaniards Known Fact.

Your part of the Origin learn to deal with it.

Remember We sold U.S.A. Florida. You can Google that.

Thank you for your time, I'm Moving on your getting a little aggressive for nothing
