What does the red stripe on dress blue trousers represent?
The red stripe on the United States Marine Corps (USMC) Dress Blues uniform is also referred to as a 'blood stripe' or 'NCO stripe'. The red stripe is worn by Marine Non-Commissioned Officers referred to as NCOs (Corporal thru Sergeant Major). According to the USMC Museum, 'The Blood Stripe Marine Corps tradition maintains that the red stripe worn on the trousers of officers and noncommissioned officers, and commonly known as the "blood stripe," commemorates those Marines killed storming the castle of Chapultepec in 1847. Although this belief is firmly embedded in the traditions of the Corps, it has no basis in fact. The use of stripes clearly predates the Mexican War.' The stripe is 1 1/8 inches wide. The Marine Corps officers wear a stripe of 1 1/2 inches wide.
