On this day in Marine Corps history in 1798,
Major William W. Burrows was appointed the 2nd Commandant of the Marine Corps by President John Adams, on July 12th, just one day after the Marine Corps was officially established by an act of congress on July 11th. He is credited with beginning many things, including the U.S. Marine Band, which he financed in part by levying contributions from his officers.
