Most Marine units had to cancel balls, limit travel plans or adjust birthday celebrations in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2021 some already have been canceled ― a hard blow to Marines who have been waiting to properly celebrate the Corps’ 246th birthday.
Tell us: Is your Marine unit having a birthday ball in 2021? If not, how do you feel about it? Veterans, how are you celebrating?
We’re trying to get a sense of how Marines will be celebrating across the Corps, so please tell us where you are located.
