November 17 1775

It was created in tun tavern, Virginia

A group of men requested to be known as marines, and fought against the british during the revolutionary war. They became a branch of the U.S military after the war

The Marine Corps was founded in Philadelphia PA, not Virginia. The date was Nov 10 1775.

The US Marine Corps was officially established in 1794, but it prefers to date its beginning to 1775 with the establishment of the Continental Marines, just as the US prefers to date its beginning with the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776 rather that the signing of the US Constitution in 1787. Confusing, isn't it?

The Continental Marines came into existence on Nov 10 1775. - SSgt 13 years active duty.
