Navy Chief, Navy Pride! For 133 years, they have been the backbone of the U.S. Navy. On April 1, 1893, the rank of Chief Petty Officer was established, creating a legacy of leadership, mentorship and expertise. Happy Birthday, Chiefs! #NavyChief | #NavyPride | #US7thFleet

Today we take a moment to honor the legacy of nearly 500,000 Marines who served during the Vietnam War. When Marines landed in Vietnam in 1965, their courage was tested in some of the most storied battles and operations in Marine Corps history—including Operation Starlite, Operation Hastings, Khe Sanh, Hue City, and Operation Dewey Canyon. Their service in the jungles and cities of Vietnam would help reshape the Marine Corps’ approach to warfighting and cement their contributions to the Corps’ history. --- Original Caption: A Marine from Company G, 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines, runs for cover as NVA soldiers open up with a .50-caliber machine gun during Operation Hastings.

On this Vietnam Veterans Day, we honor the brave men and women who served during the Vietnam War era—those who answered the call, endured the unimaginable, and carried the weight of service long after they returned home. Your courage, sacrifice, and resilience will never be forgotten. Today, we stand in gratitude and respect for all Vietnam veterans. Welcome home—and thank you. visit troopathon.org to discover more ways to support the troops. #troopathon #supportourtroops #vietnamveteransday

Honoring a Coast Guard Hero. 🇺🇸   This week, the Coast Guard conducted a Dignified Arrival for Aviation Survival Technician (AST2) Tyler Jaggers. Following a ceremony at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Tacoma, Washington, a C-130 transported AST2 Jaggers and his family to Joint Base Andrews. In the presence of the Commandant of the Coast Guard,  Coast Guard servicemembers, and loved ones, the Ceremonial Honor Guard received AST2 Jaggers’ casket and rendered honors.   AST2 Jaggers made the ultimate sacrifice while exhibiting extraordinary courage in the face of danger. In recognition of his heroism, Jaggers was advanced to Petty Officer Second Class and awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.   We are forever grateful for his selfless and unwavering devotion to serving our nation, and upholding the @USCG’s highest calling: to save the lives of others. Please join us in praying for his family, fellow crew members, and loved ones.

On National Medal of Honor Day, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have gone above and beyond the call of duty in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment remind us of the true cost of freedom—and the strength it takes to defend it. Let us never forget the heroes who have earned our nation’s highest military honor—and strive every day to live worthy of their sacrifice. . . . #TROOPATHON #supportourtroops #MedalOfHonorDay

Troopathon honors the life and legacy of Chuck Norris — a true American patriot. Before he became a legend on screen, he served in the United States Air Force, carrying the same strength, discipline, and commitment that defined everything he did. In recognition of his unwavering support for the military, he was also named an honorary Marine — a reflection of the deep respect he earned from those who serve. He never stopped standing behind our troops, using his platform to support the men and women who defend our freedom. Chuck, you will be missed. Your legacy of service and patriotism will live on in every service member you inspired. #chucknorris #militarynews #TROOPATHON #supportourtroops
