Colonel Daniel Greenwood, commanding officer of Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force-Crisis Response-Africa, wishes the Marines a happy birthday during a cake-cutting ceremony celebrating the Marine Corps’ 241st birthday at Morón Air Base, Spain, Nov. 10, 2016. A time-honored tradition, the birthday celebration embodies esprit de corps and the proud history of those before us who exemplified the Marine Corps warfighting ethos.
