#OTD in 1921, Marines and Sailors from the USS Olympia arrived at Washington Navy Yard with a casket holding the remains of an unidentified Soldier. Interred at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the memorial is a national symbol of honor, sacrifice, and eternal appreciation.

Daly passed away April 27, 1937 and is buried in his home state at the Cypress Hills National Cemetery in Brooklyn, NY. His Medals of Honor are on display at the @USMCMuseum in Triangle, VA. #MedalofHonor #USMCHistory #MarinesOfTheCorps #SemperFi

In addition to two Medals of Honor, Daly was nominated for a third for his actions during the Battle of Belleau Wood in #WWI. Daly was also awarded the Navy Cross and Distinguished Service Cross, as well as the French Medaille Militaire and Croix de Guerre.

Fifteen years later, on October 24 1915, while serving as a Gunnery Sergeant serving in the 15th Company of Marines during the Haitian Campaign , Daly led Marines through a heavy enemy attack and once again fought with exceptional gallantry, earning a second Medal of Honor.

It was #OTD in the 1900 that Daly's actions with the China Relief Expedition, during the Boxer Rebellion, earned his first Medal of Honor.

Today we remember the legendary serviceand heroism of SgtMaj. Daniel Joseph Daly. Daly who served with the Marines from 1899-1929, was one of the seven Marines to earn more than one #MedalofHonor
