Happy 238th Birthday Marines!! Semper Fi.

During the American Revolution, the Continental Congress passes a resolution stating that "two Battalions of Marines be raised" for service as landing forces for the recently formed Continental Navy. 

The resolution, drafted by future U.S. president John Adams and adopted in Philadelphia, created the Continental Marines and is now observed as the birth date of the United States Marine Corps.
Serving on land and at sea, the original U.S. Marines distinguished themselves in a number of important operations during the Revolutionary War.

 The first Marine landing on a hostile shore occurred when a force of Marines under Captain Samuel Nicholas captured New Province Island in the Bahamas from the British in March 1776. Nicholas was the first commissioned officer in the Continental Marines and is celebrated as the first Marine commandant.

I'm a warrior, sand tribute to George Washington in miniature (sand jars) of Adinolfi Orlando

"I am a Warrior. My words are few and plain; but I will make good what I say. 'Tis my business to destroy all the Enemies of these States and to protect their friends. You have seen how we have withstood the English for four years; and how their great Armies have dwindled away and come to very little; and how what remains of them in this part of our great Country, are glad to stay upon Two or three little Islands, where the Waters and their Ships hinder us from going to destroy them. The English, Brothers, are a boasting people. They talk of doing a great deal; but they do very little. They fly away on their Ships from one part of our Country to an other; but as soon as our Warriors get together they leave it and go to some other part. They took Boston and Philadelphia, two of our greatest Towns; but when they saw our Warriors in a great body ready to fall upon them, they were forced to leave them. … Brothers: We have till lately fought the English all alone. Now the Great King of France is become our Good Brother and Ally. He has taken up the Hatchet with us, and we have sworn never to bury it, till we have punished the English and made them sorry for All the wicked things they had in their Hearts to do against these States. And there are other Great Kings and Nations on the other side of the big Waters, who love us and wish us well, and will not suffer the English to hurt us. … Brothers: Listen well to what I tell you and let it sink deep into your Hearts. We love our friends, and will be faithful to them, as long as they will be faithful to us. We are sure our Good brothers the Delawares will always be so. But we have sworn to take vengeance on our Enemies, and on false friends." – George Washington, speech to the Delaware Indian Chiefs on May 12, 1779; Fitzpatrick 15:54

TROTULA DE RUGGIERO, Magistra Medicinae of Salerno School.

TROTULA DE RUGGIERO,  SANDJARS (minitiatura con la sabbia) del Maestro Orlando Adinolfi che sarà esposta al Museo ROBERTO PAPI.

Trotula is believed to have lived between the 11th and 12th centuries CE in the southern Italian port town of Salerno, at that time widely reputed as a center of medical learning.^[5] Salerno was at the time “the most important center for the introduction of Arabic medicine into Western Europe”. 

Salerno favored the development of what would become the three most important specialized texts on women's medicine in medieval western Europe". In referring to the School of Salerno in the twelfth century, historians actually mean an informal community of masters and pupils who, over the course of the twelfth century, developed more or less formal methods of instruction and investigation; there is no evidence of any physical or legal entity before the thirteenth century. 

She may have belonged to the wealthy di Ruggiero family and may have been married to the physician Johannes Platearius and had two sons, Johannes Platearius II and Matthaeus Platearius. Again, very few concrete facts are known about her life. Some scholars believe that both Trotula and her husband authored practica brevis, a work that discusses medical diseases.

Trotula is alleged to have written a major work on women’s medicine in medieval Europe, On the Diseases of Women (De passionibus mulierum).

She is also alleged to have been the first female professor of medicine and the first female gynecologist. Some scholars assert that Trotula taught at the School of Salerno, earning the title of Magistra Medicinae.     The plethora of evidence that numerous women graduated from the School of Salerno since its inception validates the fact that Trotula herself attended the institution.
