From our original Young Marine uniform in 1959 to the woodland camouflage BDU and today’s digi cammies - our uniform has evolved through the years! 🇺🇸 While the look has changed, our commitment to teaching youth leadership skills, team building, and self-discipline remains the same. Today’s Young Marines continue to wear their uniforms tall and proud! 🫡

Because when our adult volunteers grow, our Young Marines thrive! 📈✨
