Once a Marine Always a Marine

The mission of the Marine Corps League is to preserve traditions of the United States Marine Corps; strengthen the fraternity of Marines and their families; serve Marines, FMF Corpsmen, and FMF Chaplains who wear or have worn the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor; and foster the ideals of Americanism and patriotic volunteerism.

 MARINE CORPS LEAGUE Once a Marine, always a Marine! Active, Reserve, Retired, and Veteran Marines continue the faithful tradition of looking out for the Marines to their left and right. Founded in 1923 by then Marine Corps Commandant  MajGen John A. Lejeune, and chartered in 1937 as the only Congressionally Chartered Marine Corps Veterans Service Organization. 

 “Once a Marine, always a Marine” is familiar to us all. It is that feeling you get when you see a Marine Corps sticker on a car or a home proudly displaying the Marine Corps flag. We know we can knock on the door and that Marine will be there for us. Despite our many years of service to different causes, we all have that common bond. We have all earned the privilege to wear the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor.
