Every Marine is expected to know about the Battle of Chapultepec, and the associated lore around the "blood stripe" on dress blue trousers, especially corporals and above.

The United States Marine Corps was formally established as a permanent military branch on July 11, 1798.

1917–1919 marks early publication, but 1929 is the “official birthday” of the hymn as we know it.
The Battle of Chapultepec was a pivotal engagement in the Mexican-American War, 1846–1848. It took place on September 12–13, 1847, at Chapultepec Castle on the outskirts of Mexico City.

Chapultepec Castle sat atop a 200-foot (61 m) rocky hill, serving as a natural fortress overlooking the approaches to Mexico City. Originally built in the late 18th century and later converted into a military academy, it was the last major defensive position before the Mexican capital.

U.S. forces under General Winfield Scott (about 7,200 troops) advanced after victories at earlier battles like Cerro Gordo. Mexican General Antonio López de Santa Anna commanded roughly 25,000 men overall, but the castle itself was defended by General Nicolás Bravo with around 800–1,000 troops (including ~50 military cadets from the academy).

SEPTEMBER 12, 1847
U.S. artillery bombarded the castle.

SEPTEMBER 13, 1847
American troops attacked from multiple directions. Divisions under Generals Gideon Pillow and John Quitman led the assault, scaling walls with ladders amid heavy fire. Marines and soldiers played key roles in the storming of the hill and castle.

The fighting was intense and bloody. U.S. forces suffered significant casualties but overwhelmed the defenders. The castle fell by around 9:30 a.m. on the 13th, opening the gates to Mexico City, which U.S. troops entered shortly after.

Every Marine is expected to know about the Battle of Chapultepec, and the associated lore around the "blood stripe" on dress blue trousers, especially corporals and above.

The scarlet (red) stripe on the outer seam of the Marine Corps dress blue trousers — wider for officers (2 inches) and narrower for NCOs (about 1.5 inches for corporals and up) — is officially called the

Marine Corps lore and tradition strongly tie it to the heavy casualties, especially among officers and NCOs, suffered during the storming of Chapultepec Castle on September 13, 1847. The idea is that it commemorates the blood shed by those leaders in one of the Corps' most famous battles, which is also referenced in the opening line of the Marines' Hymn ("From the Halls of Montezuma").


This story is deeply embedded in Marine culture. Many units even hold formal "blood stripe ceremonies" when a Marine is promoted to corporal (entering the NCO ranks) and earns the right to wear it.

Historical records show the red trouser stripe was introduced in the late 1830s (as early as 1837–1840), several years before the Mexican-American War and Chapultepec. It started as a uniform distinction (influenced by Army artillery styles and jacket facings) and evolved into its current form. The Chapultepec connection is a popular, enduring legend that the Corps embraces for its motivational and historical value, even if not strictly factual.

BUMBADUM: Illegals were getting 2% interest rate covid FHA mortgages with 0 down payment backed by the US Government. That's why we cant afford a fucking house.

And you wonder why I've been saying that Obama and London Stole Fannie and Freddie in 2008? This is what they were ultimately doing under the hood. And they stole this from Americans, using Lehman as cover for the theft. Answer these questions and you'll see what I'm getting at: Why was Lehman liquidated/executed by Hank Paulson?
Why was AIG (London-based reinsurer) bailed out multiple times? Why did all of this happen 7 days after a 'report' said Fannie/Freddie were insolvent and nationalized? 2008 was 9/11 for the US mortgage industry times 12.

HOPE and CHANGE MY FAT HAIRY ASS.

KUNG FU (@CHART_FU): The Petro-Eurodollar refers to the offshore dollar funding and credit creation system that financed much of that trade. Born in London in the 1950s, it grew into a massive global network of dollar deposits and loans existing outside the US regulatory system.

The Petrodollar vs. Petro-Eurodollar: Two Very Different Systems Most people blur these terms, but separating them is essential for clean mapping. The Petrodollar is the pricing and settlement layer: the vast majority of global oil is still sold and settled in US dollars. This core remains structurally strong and gives America enduring demand for its currency. The Petro-Eurodollar refers to the offshore dollar funding and credit creation system that financed much of that trade. Born in London in the 1950s, it grew into a massive global network of dollar deposits and loans existing outside the US regulatory system. London was the historic heart and still the largest single hub, but the system is distributed across other centers like Singapore, Hong Kong, the Cayman Islands, and Dubai. For decades the two worked in tandem: oil priced in dollars + London (and offshore) financing the flows. That combination powered global dollar liquidity and let the US run large deficits. What’s happening now is the deliberate replumbing of the eurodollar funding side. Bilateral energy deals, WTI pricing migration at Cushing, Gulf swap lines, and new permanent funding centers are replacing the old London-heavy intermediation. The transactional funding layer is being rerouted while the core petrodollar settlement dominance is being protected and modernized. This distinction matters. Critics who say “the petrodollar is dying” are usually watching eurodollar funding stress and missing that the US is actively replacing the fragile old plumbing rather than clinging to a collapsing system.

The mercantilist transition isn’t abandoning dollar primacy — it’s upgrading the architecture underneath it. Same dollar, different (and more controllable) pipes.
