First to avoid being severely beaten by 80+ year old Marine you might want to call this action a "strategic withdrawal" done in the face of 7 Chinese divisions of volunteers sent into Korea in a surprise attack. In the face of incredible odds during one of the coldest winters in memory the vastly out numbered Marines withdrew intact and 5 of the Chinese division were so severely damaged that they were unable to be fielded for the duration of the war. Most agree these young Marines were thrust into a living hell and performed exceptionally. Fought 27 Nov thru 13 Dec 1950.

Has the marine corps ever retreated?

Yes eventually everyone has to fall back at the very least. Two notable accounts that come to mind are at the Chosin Reservoir in Korea. This is when Chesty Puller refused to leave army dead and wounded and decided not to retreat but fight in another direction. and Marines in the Philippians during WWII. Not only did they retreat they surrendered. I believe it was 5th Marines. They surrendered after the Navy and Army surrendered and the Japanese either started executing POWs or threatened to. 5th Marines Colors after the surrender were permanently removed from active use due to this huge dishonor.
