U.S. Marine Corps Flag

The Marine emblem is a very powerful symbol. Together, the three elements – eagle, anchor, and globe – represent the Marines’ diehard commitment to defend the United States, on air, land, and sea. In fact, this emblem has been a part of the Marine uniform since 1868 and became the official emblem in 1955. The eagle represents the nation that the Marines protect and is situated on top of the globe, wings open wide. In its mouth is a scroll with the words, “Semper Fidelis.” The anchor points to both the naval heritage of the Marines and their access to any coastline in the world. Finally, the globe stands for its worldwide presence. Each sculpture is cut from a 1/8-inch steel plate and then hand-polished. It is then heat-treated and painted for color before finally being finished with a poured-on epoxy coating. Because each sculpture is handmade, no two are alike. Each sculpture comes with welded-on hardware for hanging and 2-inch offsets, which gives the sculpture a floating appearance. Hooks for the optional laser-engraved black name plate ($40.00) are already installed.
