(1)
The Continental Marine Corps, established during the American Revolutionary War, served as infantrymen aboard naval vessels under the command of ship captains. Their multifaceted duties included providing shipboard security, acting as sharpshooters from the rigging during maritime engagements, and executing amphibious landings and raids to capture enemy ships, weapons, and supplies.
In 1776, the Continental Congress formalized the Marine Corps uniform in Infantry colors: green with white facings, silver buttons, and officer epaulets. In 1779, the facings were changed to red. The uniform's unique and iconic feature was the thick leather stock worn around the neck, designed to protect Marines from cutlass wounds and promote an upright posture. This uniform piece gave rise to the enduring nickname for Marines, "Leathernecks."
