The "Marines' Hymn" is the official hymn of the United States Marine Corps, introduced by the first Director of USMC Band, Francesco Maria Scala. It is the oldest official song in the United States Armed Forces. The "Marines' Hymn" is typically sung at the position of attention as a gesture of respect. However, the third verse is also used as a toast during formal events, such as the birthday ball and other ceremonies. Western Illinois University uses the hymn prior to all football games. They are the only non-military academy allowed to use the hymn. The university has had permission to use the official nickname, mascot, and hymn of the Corps since 1927.

It’s a honor mr president
@George Washington Dude you died centeries ago and now you alive again............ ASH WE GOT ANOTHER DEADITE OVER HERE!😂🤣
OORAH George!!! That is most affirm, and all remember , "Marines never die, we just go to hell and regroup."

How do we know the Marines are badass? The Army and Navy advertises themselves with all the benefits they offer. The Marines advertise by pointing out that by joining, you get to be a Marine.
That’s all that’s needed to be said you get to be a marine
The few, the proud.....
Honor to the Marines corps from Italy
All the other branches of the service are just that but........ The Marines are a brotherhood and it is forever ! Semper Fi. Hoorah !! 🇺🇸❤
My son is a Marine. When you know, you know.
Still sends chills up my spine. Been out of the Marines for 32 years now. Still stirs me up.
Once a Marine, always a Marine
@@mikeshawbrook-selfreliance that's a pathetic plea for survival. Always afraid that they will be disbanded so you have to over advertise.
@@rafaelramirez7089 What on earth are you talking about ?
@@mikeshawbrook-selfreliance the "I'm a marine" "Once a marine always a marine" bullshit.

Honoring my husband, John M. Hopkins, who fought in Viet Nam as part of the 3rd Recon Battalion. He was awarded a Bronze Star and three Purple Hearts. He is interred at Willamette National Cemetery, where I visit him often. When I do, I play this hymn for him. Semper Fi, my love. 💜
Thank you and your late husband for your service!

"Today you people are no longer maggots. Today you are Marines. You're part of a brotherhood. From now on, until the day you die, wherever you are, every Marine is your brother. Most of you will go to Vietnam. Some of you will not come back. But always remember this: Marines die, that's what we're here for! But the Marine Corps lives forever, and that means you live forever!"

“They fought liked devils, they howled like wolves in the night. They make us stay up late, too scared to sleep. It seems that satan has unleashed his devil dogs into us. It’s only a matter of time until they come to fetch our souls.” ~ German Officer, 1918.

My dad was a U.S marine for 27 years who fought in the Iraqi war and was never hit with a bullet once. He was in the 2nd battalion and was a Colonel. He worked with Navy SEALs and other marines in Iraq and Afghanistan. When I'm older I wish to join the Marines to be like my Dad and Grandfather.

“When you’re working with Army and Marine Corps units, you immediately notice a difference. The Army is pretty tough, but their performance can depend on the individual unit. Some are excellent, filled with hoorah and first-class warriors. A few are absolutely horrible; most are somewhere in between. In my experience, Marines are gung ho no matter what. They will all fight to the death. Every one of them just wants to get out there and kill. They are bad-ass, hard-charging mothers.”
― Chris Kyle, NAVY SEAL, American Sniper
do they have morals .. or just want to kill ?? I feel a lot of them want to join just to kill people and blow shits up ..
Zen AlSham nope we have morals but just comes with the job and training lol
@koala cousins what are you, a Liberal wimp?
Look up what army reserves units have done in combat.
@koala cousins They work on morals during training...
My 21 year old son went to Camp Pendleton today, September 11, 2023. I wanted him to go, but it has made me so terribly sad. I hope he's a better person after basic, but I do hope these 13 weeks go by very fast. Best to all the young men and women that have taken this path.
Gonna play a guy in a reenactment who went to Pendleton before being shipped to Marianas islands and dying on Tinian isle in WWII
My 19 year old daughter Rachel left for Camp Pendleton on the 25th of September 2023. I can honestly say I understand what you are going through. At the moment we haven’t heard anything from her but are wishing the best. It’s hard not to get upset when you miss your kid with all your heart but at the same time excited at the thought of them standing before you at graduation.
Stay strong and trust the process he’s in good hands
How’s your son doing
@@adamdyer2286 Thanks for asking. I think he's doing well. At one point he got hand, foot, and mouth and was down for the count for several days. I was worried he would be held back. But they put him back in the mix once he was better and he's on track to graduate with his company/platoon in December. His two siblings, their dad, and I will be going out to see him. Very excited. Thanks for asking again. :)
My grandfather was a corpsman in the Korean War. He always told me how thankful he was to be with the Marines- they didn’t leave their own behind.
Miss you and proud of you Grandpa.
When the army and navy get to heaven, they will find the streets guarded by Marines. Love that
My absolute favorite line of the whole song! 👍
This is actually not true. Marines don’t die, they just go to Hell and regroup.
Marines don't have permission to die.
They didn't even give the Air Force an honorable mention... wait does the Air Force still even exist?
@@brandonellis8111 Yes, yes it does. Just not in the eyes of the Corps.
Remember devildogs
We stole the eagle from the Air Force, the rope from the Army, and the anchor from the Navy. And on the 7th Day, when God rested, we overran His perimeter, stole the globe, and we’ve been running the show ever since. Warrior by day, lover by night, drunkard by choice, Marine by God.
Literally got chills reading that
Too many alcoholics!
Oooooh-RAH!!!!
EUUURUAAHHH
Cool Guy....Not So Cool.
Love this hymn. My Great Grandpa was in the US Marines in WW2. He joined at just 17 years old. He lied to get in just like any other boy did at that time to go and serve their country. He was wounded at Iwo Jima by a grenade, and was sent back to the states. He passed in 2003 at the age of 77. SEMPER FI Great Grandpa and keep the streets of Heaven guarded.
Respect.
My Grandad was a Marine who fought bravely in Iwo Jima! He saw Old Glory raised on Mt. Suribachi! I am also proud decendant of legendary war hero Lt. Presley O'Bannon! Semper Fidelis. God bless everyone and the USMC!
“If the Army and the Navy ever looked on Heavens scene, they will find the streets are guarded by United States Marines!”

Freedom isn't free, but the US Marine Corps will pay most of your share.
My brother graduates boot camp in 4 days and he has no idea that me, our older sister, and our grandpa will be accompanying my mom to his graduation! I've been repeating this song while cleaning his room up for him for the passed hour so I can sing it at the ceremony with everyone else. It's gonna be my first plane ride, and I bet it'll be so fun when I get there! It's gonna be great! He's platoon leader too, so that's also amazing!

I'm listening to this as I prepare to go on the journey to be a Marine. I have sat on my calling of the US Armed forces for years and told myself I couldn't do it. But life has taken me on a path I'd never thought I'd be on. Now I have no other choice but to listen to my heart and my heavenly father. I finally went to the recruiting office and talked to em I go back in on Saturday to get my physical and Asfab scheduled.
Good luck!!!
I dedicate this Hymn to the 12 Marines killed in Kabul- a tragedy. These fine young men and women will always be Forever Young.
"Today, you are Marines. You're part of a brotherhood. From now on, until the day you die, wherever you are, every Marine is your brother. Most of you will go to Vietnam. Some of you will not come back. But always remember this: Marines die. That's what we're here for. But the Marine Corps lives forever and that means you live forever."
So true, so true.
Semper Fidelis!!! Ooh Rahh

Nov 3, 2019: I dedicate this song to the memory of my first love, Sgt Manuel R. Martinez of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Manuel was killed on August 22, 1975 when he rolled his blue 240Z Datsun that had been purchased while stationed in Okinawa Japan. He loved the Corps, was a member of the Carpenters Union and the VFW. Only 23 at the time of his death, Manuel is buried at the Santa Fe National Cemetery. (Katrina)

My father a proud Marine, did his tour in Vietnam in '65. Many of the values the Marines instilled in him he passed down to his sons. He's strong, confident, resourceful, holds his head high and his back straight, looks every man in the eye. Glad he's my dad.
Semper Fi.
Happy birthday Marines, November 10, 2023. 248 big ones.
I never met my great grandfather. He served in the Pacific Front and died on the mountain pushing back the Japanese on Iwo Jima.
My dad has alzhimers but he walked in singing this. He can't remember what he just had for lunch but remembered the words to this song.
Btw he is from china.

Certain things are ebbedded in our brains. I can quote the hymn in my sleep.
When you hear this in the distance, you better turn around and run like hell.
You hear this song from all angles, you're trapped.

Amen I play it at sunset at top of my speakers blaring from the end of my dock on the lake because my neighbor is peeping and my boy is working and I don't want to tell him how bad it is. But I give that neighbor this song and He bugged out after 3 plays on first night. Laughed my ass off. Now all neighbors get to hear it every 🌙 at sunset
Hell you hear it you're already dead
My neighbor was a Marine after 1968.
His hitch ended in 1972 but the only thing he was more proud of than being a Marine was his daughters.

I wanted to be a Marine, but my mom basically hated me for it. And since I cherished my parents being proud of me over my own happiness, I’m now in seminary absolutely hating every second of my life. Moral to the story - do what you want with your life kids.
Once you're old enough at 18 you no longer need permission from your parents. It's your right to decide. You can leave In her face and she cant do anything about it. Go achieve your dreams. Don't let anyone ever tell you "no"
Yup. You only have 1 life.
In the case of my nephew, he was following in his fathers footsteps. It was his grandmother who couldnt handle it. She had a lot of trouble coping with her grandson possibly going into combat.
Thus, could result in you resenting your parents one day. Not too late bud marines even give age wagers sometimes
My dad fought in Vietnam in 68' as a Marine. He passed away a few years ago from cancer. His tombstone in a National cemetery says Once a Marine, Always a Marine.
One of my very good friends wants to be a marine and I wish him and everyone else who shares his dream the best of luck and courage to fight and live!
As a Marine Corps mother I really appreciate that thank you for sharing this song now after 13 years of service in the Marine Corps and three tours my son is a deputy sheriff I couldn't be more proud to be called a Marine Corps mother and the law enforcement mother Semper Fi
You and my daughter understand the meaning of M.O.M. Wish there was a similar abbreviation for the grandparents.
My husband was a United States Marine. He was very proud of that. He always had good words for the Marines Fighting Force.
God Bless The United States Marine and ALL of her fighting forces. Unarguably the best military force on earth.
Lisa Jordon true, if the US army didn’t exist
@@Wesley-1776 Excuse me ?
Lisa Jordon First to fight for the right and to build the nations might, and the army goes rolling along, then it’s hi hi hey the army’s on its way, shout out your cadence loud and strong, for o where you go, you will always know that the army goes rolling along
The continental Army existed before the Marines. US Special Operations teams comprised of Army Special Forces teams (Alpha or A Teams) are the first into combat zones before conventional forces ever step foot in a country we are at war with.
Forgot of MARSOC and Force Reconnaissance. Marines are the first to fight as they are the most mobile, army does have aviation divisions and tanks but marines have it but do it better with better training. Also Army Special Forces teams are called (ODA) Operational Detachment Alpha (3 digit number) Not just "Alpha Teams"
My Husband alway's said, " Marines don't die, they just fade away" He served 20yrs in the U.S.M.C. two tour's in Viet Nam with two purple Hearts 💜 He lived 2yrs longer then he was suppose to live. He didn't want to die and leave me and our children and grand children.
Heaven needed another Marine on guard today and called my brother to duty.
Sorry for your loss man

"to the shores of Tripoli" refer to a battle against the Rais Hamidou in the Mediterranean Sea (really fascinating character and certainly one if not the greatest "pirate" in history), and it was the starting point of the hegemony of the United States.
Even though I'm 10 I still wish to be apart of the hardest branch of the armed forces I've been watching so many videos on what these marines have to do when I'm older I'm willing to see those "yellow footprints" I'm willing to die for my family and for my country. I'm ten and I have big dreams

Even though it's been 10 years I generally love hearing it.

Although I'm british I do have to say our little son is very strong and I wish him all the best oorraahh semper fi
I first learned this anthem in my 5th-grade music class , and have been very proud of it ever since .
You know you messed up when you hear this blasting a few miles off your coast.
I was attached to 2nd Marine Division in Operation Desert Storm as a soldier. The Marines needed the Bradley Fighting Vehicle to go knock out The Republican Guard on Saddam Hussein. I was proud as punch to say when my Company Commander asked me what Vehicle was ready to go and I said HQ-25 as we were servicing vehicles. The Bradley Tow Missle System packs a hell of a punch when you need it. The Lav-25 Vehicles that theorises were using had no missles equipped on it. Just a 25mm Bushmaster gun and 7.62 coaxial machine gun. I told the Marine Captain to get some! He grinned. The fireworks were amazing! Flattened the hell out them all. Our M-1 Abrahm Tanks blew the enemy tanks away. Smoking wrecked T-72, T,-55, and T-62 Tanks riddled everywhere like burnt toast to be sure! You could smell it! That and fighter and bombers pulverised the enemy like hamburger! Ooorah! HHC 3rd Brigade 2nd Armored Division Tiger Brigade. Fort Hood, Texas 76554. Respect, Love, and Honour to all who serve and to our veterans! God Bless. You are the heroes of this modern day. Your service guarantees our freedom and liberties that so many in Hollywood and the left wing lunatic have no appreciation for as their children are not serving! Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg, Madonna, Ashley Judd, and Bruce Springsteen. Stand on the wall with rifle and rucksack. Simper Fidelis!
And when he goes to Heaven,
To St. Peter he will tell:
Another Marine reporting, Sir;
I've served my time in hell.
