 Marines have fought in all the big and little wars of our country. Ste- phen Decatur witnessed their valor ct Tripoli. They shared in Dewey'6 victory at Manila Bay, aided in the destruction of the Spanish Fleet in Cuba, and shed their blood on the battlefieldg of France.
 During tEA 200 or more landings they have made on foreign soil, they carried Old Glory to Korea, Surna. tra, Samoa, China, the Philippines and the far-of Fiji Islands.
 The old-time marine went into battle armed with a rnusket, pike, oI cutlass. His modern prototype is equipped with practically every con' ceivable military weapon used on land or sea, from machine and anti aircraft guns to fighting planes and amphibious tractors.
 During the more than eight score years since they were first organized the U. s. Marines have built up Q tradition for valor unexcelled by any fighting unit anywhere. There will be very little ceremony to note their passing of another milestone along the road they have followed so faith fully in the service of their country,

Next Monday, Sergeant Maxwell F. Diokerson, officer in charge oi the Waterbury marine recruiting station, recalled today, will be the l66th anniversary of the founding of this far-famed branch of the fight- ing forces. Colnmemogation of their many services to the country is pAr- ticularly timely on Nov. 10, on the eve of ArSnistice Day, when the men who have fought and in many cases given their lives in our wars are rec membered..
 The sergeant, himself c veteran who has seen twenty years service with the Marines, and hopes to see twenty more before retiring, today harked back to some of the exploits of the "leathernecks" in the course of their long history-the longest os any branch of the service.
 In lT7S, he pointed out, this coun- try was under the shadow of war somewhat as 1t Is today; flies and drums were calling men to the col- ors. Men to man our fighting fri- gates were among the crying needs of the hour, and there was an urgent call for Marines.
