jagr Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Happy Birthday to all you Jar Heads out there. Who would have thought a branch of service started in a bar would have lasted this long?Best wishes from a former Army Spec Ops shooter, Thank you all for your service, however crazed and misguided it may be!Thanks Brother. God,Country,Corps!I want to get to the Tavern one of these days. On November 10, 1775, Robert Mullan, the proprietor of the Tavern and son of Peggy Mullan, was commissioned by an act of Congress to raise the first two battalions of Marines, under the leadership of Capt. Samuel Nicholas, the first appointed Commandant of the Continental Marines. Nicholas's grandfather was also a member of the Tun Tavern Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons and it is this relationship between Mullan, Nicholas and the Tavern which has resulted in Tun Tavern being acknowledged as the birthplace of the United States Marine Corps. There are an estimated three million active and retired U.S. Marines worldwide who have been exposed in their military training to the historical significance of Tun Tavern. Each year on November 10th, around the world Marines toast the Marine's birthplace on the most significant date in the history of the Corps.
