The United States Marine Corps is beginning the celebration of its 250th anniversary today at Camp Pendleton as well as America’s Semiquincentennial.

Vice President JD Vance, who is the first Marine to hold his office, is leading the “America’s Marines 250: From Sea to Shore — A Review of Amphibious Strength” event with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Navy Secretary John Phelan, and Marine Corps Commandant General Eric Smith.
Today’s celebration will include a live Amphibious Capabilities Demonstration, speeches from national officials, and a community Beach Bash at Del Mar Beach.
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Vice President Vance as he heads the 250th Marine Corps anniversary celebration.
- For President Trump to seek God’s wisdom as he serves as commander-in-chief of the U.S. Armed Forces.
- For Defense Secretary Hegseth and all the service branch secretaries and commanders to be led by the Lord.
- With gratitude for all the men and women serving in harm’s way in the United States military.
