The United States Marine Corps was created on November 10, 1775, when the Continental Congress resolved that âtwo Battalions of Marines be raisedâ to serve as landing forces and shipboard security for the recently organized navy fleet.
The third oldest marine corps in the world was founded as the TerÃ§o of the Navy of the Crown of Portugal in 1618. The Portuguese Navy still maintains this naval infantry corps, which is currently known as the Corpo de Fuzileiros.
