BIRTHDAY RUN

Marines with 3rd Marine Regiment run past the Pacific War Memorial with their regimental battle colors on Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Nov. 6, 2012, in celebration of the Marine Corps' 237th birthday, Nov. 10. Both Marines and Navy corpsmen assigned to 3rd Marines, the highest-deployed Marine infantry regiment in Operations Enduring and Iraqi Freedom, honored their heritage by running a two-mile course from the 3rd Marines headquarters to the Pacific War Memorial and back. In total, 29 teams of four runners and an additional lone runner completed the 237 miles. Photo by Cpl Reece Lodder.
