Due to the lack of ticket sales, we made the difficult decision to cancel this year's Marine Corps Birthday Ball. Unfortunately, moving forward with the event would have required Detachment 708 to absorb thousands of dollars in venue and catering costs that could not be covered by ticket sales. As stewards of our detachment's resources, this was the most responsible decision.

As Marines, we proudly commemorate the founding of the Continental Marines on November 10, 1775. Each year, we honor our Corps' birthday through traditions such as the Birthday Ball, cake-cutting ceremony, and the reading of the Commandant's Birthday Message and General John A. Lejeune's message. While we won't be holding a ball this year, we can - and will - continue to honor our proud traditions.

On Tuesday 10 November 2026, at 6:30pm we will hold a simple Cake Cutting Ceremony, along with the reading of the Commandant's Birthday Message and General Lejeune's message. It will be held in our own home, MCL 708. It won't be fancy or extravagant, just Marines and fellow warriors coming together to celebrate the Marine Corps, our rich heritage, and all those who have worn the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor.

I sincerely hope you will join us as we honor our Corps and the generations of Marines who came before us.

Semper Fidelis,
Jose Infante
Senior Vice Commandant
