Fox News
The United States Marines Corps proved its resolve by leading a mercenary force on an incredible attack on Tripoli during the Barbary Wars on this day in history, April 27, 1805.
The victory is immortalized in a patriotic American anthem. "From the Halls of Montezuma/To the Shores of Tripoli/We fight our country's battles on the air, on land and sea." — "The Marines' Hymn" The 400-mile march "with a mercenary army that continued to have serious threats of mutiny, lack of food, and no water was a miracle itself." — Marine Corps historian Kater Miller Kerry J. Byrne is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
"From the Halls of Montezuma/To the Shores of Tripoli/We fight our country's battles/In the air, on land and sea," proclaims the rousing opening lyrics of "The Marines' Hymn" (the original 19th-century opening line, pre-air power, was "on the land as on the sea").
