One simple gesture embodies Marine Corps history, tradition, brotherhood

An Eagle, Globe and Anchor represents more than a symbol of the Marine Corps. The eagle represents the United States, the globe means worldwide service and the anchor stands for the Marine Corps’ rich naval traditions. This Eagle, Globe and Anchor was given to me by Staff Sgt. Charles E. Fessler. Fessler graduated from recruit training in 1942 and served four years with 1st Marine Airwing.
