Happy National Devil Dog Day to the US Marine Corps!

The USMC describes the nickname “Devil Dogs” as a legend born in 1918 at the Battle of Belleau Wood, when German forces reportedly referred to attacking U.S. Marines as Teufelshunde, meaning “devil dogs,” in recognition of their tenacity and aggressive fighting spirit.

While the phrase became a powerful part of Marine Corps identity and recruiting, historians have noted that there is little contemporary German documentation confirming its actual use in battle, suggesting it may have been popularized or embellished in wartime American propaganda.
