Today marks the 360th anniversary of the formation of the Royal Marines. Established in 1664, the Royal Marines have remained steadfast over their 360-year history thanks to the Commando mindset and unwavering commitment to their values and standards which set them apart as a specialised amphibious force. Today, we honour their proud history and long legacy as the UK Commando Forces continue to be the first to adapt and overcome in the most diverse and challenging environments. Per Mare, Per Ter
