The Marine Corps motto is Semper Fidelis, Latin for "always faithful." On this, the Marine Corps' birthday, it is customary to shout "Happy birthday, Marine!" and it is customary for the Marine to respond "Semper Fi!" Happy birthday, Marines!

We want to give a HUGE thank you to Bank of America community volunteers. They worked hard on Saturday to help in artwork preservation. Preservation is a less-than-glamorous side of museum activities, but it is vitally necessary.

James “Jim” C. Moore, 1948–2022. Jim served in the 13th Marine Regiment in Vietnam & was a strong supporter of veteran issues. He was a fixture at the museum, & his absence leaves a huge hole. Semper fidelis! For more about Jim, go to nvam.org/james-jim-c-mo…
