HASTINGS Marine Corps Observe 173rd Anniversary (continued from page 1) til in 1798 when it was revived for the enlistment of men lor shipboard duty. It was in. 1805 that the Marines started on their long career as defenders of American rights on the seven seas, with their war fare against the Barbary priates in North Africa. The Marines, under Lt. O'Bannon marched six hundred miles across the Sa hara desert and stormed defens es at Derna. They hauled down the flag of Tripoli and replaced it with the Stars and Stripes, the first time this nation's ileg had flown in the old war. Here the Marines added the ltd stripe to their uniform in hon or cf their fallen comrades. In the war with Mexico in 1845, the Marines participated with the. army in the capture of Chapultepec castle, though im pregnable. In the bloody fight ing the Marine units won their objective and were in the halls of the Monte7.umas. Their activities in the early part of the nineteenth century was largely in the warfare on the pirates of the West Indies and in the Dutch East Indies. They landed with the Perry ex pedition in Japan in 1854. They served as occupation.' units in many parts of Central America and in the Caribbean countries during the ensuing years.. In world war I, the Marines participated in the fighting in France and their units fought at Belleau Woods, where they had relieved the French, one of the bloody actions that turned the tide of the battle against the Ger mans. In this battle, three Platts mouth young men, Major Don and Byron Arries were severely wounded. The woods have since been renamed by the French to Wood of the Marine Division. The Marines made the first offensive thrust of world war II in the landing on Guadalcanal cn August 7, 1942. This dramatic landing ranks with the terrific struggle at Tarawa and Imo Jima, battles that will be long a part of the Marines history, as well as that of the nation.
